It seems that translate.py does not "register" annotation for rctypes objects.
In a previous mail I suggested to add
import pypy.rpython.rctypes.implementation
in pypy/translator/goal/translate.py and translation seems to go further.
(I'm running
translate.py standalone --usemodules=_demo
after I added your code in demo.py)
Unfortunately the complete translation takes too much memory for the
machine I'm currently working on, so I could not test completely.
And since its a Windows box, I had to remove the libc.pipe call completely...
Hope this helps.
It seems that many people are interested in the new rctypes way to
create modules...
