Thanks. And here I felt like I was sticking is_complex tests in all
sorts of odd places... (I did try to minimize that.)

Looks good to me too. The line
type_name = self.qualified_name.split('.')[-1]
in __getattr__ seems extraneous, as does the empty comment in the
PyInt_from... code. With all this testing for basetype.is_int, it is
almost testing to make a subclass just for int typedefs. Also, we are
assuming that the only sizes that can occur are char, short, int,
long, and long long. (It sounds inconceivable, but the C spec would
allow 16-bit ints and 64-bit longs, or 64-bit ints as in ILP64.)

I shouldn't think so.
