I'm certainly no SWIG expert, however:

    1. Is your SLSocket class wrapped with SWIG?  Do you maybe need a
       typemap?  Can you explicitly create one from Python?  If so, does
       that work?

    2. What does your SWIG .i file look like?

    3. Finally, have you tried asking on the SWIG mailing list
       (swig-user at lists.sourceforge.net)?  There are probably many more SWIG
       experts there than here.
