[C++-sig] Wrapping a function that takes class type, such as type_info

[Adam Preble]

It looks like PyObject_IsSubClass is working (!), but I wanted to follow up
on the boost::python::object stuff:

I couldn't get that to work.  I can't pass it directly into
PyObject_IsSubclass, which isn't surprising.  However, I couldn't do a get
or find anything else to extract the PyObject* out of it.  Is there a trick
to this?  I would wonder--is there a particular reason I should use that
instead?  In my case, I'm not trying to sit on the pointer outside of the
class to Has().  The list I'm using has shared_ptr's of the underlying type
already.  So I assume in my particular case I wouldn't have to worry about
it.
