https://github.com/Veek/Python/tree/master/junk/hello
doesn't work.
I have:
hello.c which contains: int hello(void);
hello.h

To wrap that up, i have:
hello.py -> _hello (c extension) -> pyhello.c -> method py_hello()

People using this will do:
python3.2>> import hello
python3.2>> hello.hello()

It doesn't compile/work.
