FWIW, I have used hand-coded construction / conversion code to generate
C++ containers ('Vector', here) from python lists, such as this:

std::auto_ptr<Vector> construct_vector(bpl::list l)
{
  long len = bpl::extract<long>(l.attr("__len__")());
  std::auto_ptr<Vector> vector(new Vector(len));
  for (long i = 0; i != len; ++i) vector->put(i, bpl::extract<double>(l[i]));
  return vector;
}

May be something similar would work for you, too ?

HTH,
