I don't think it would. You don't need a type-check, you just need to check for
a pair of numerator and denominator attributes.
So we could do something like this, except in C:
try:
return log(float(x))
except DomainError:
try:
a = x.numerator
b = x.denominator
except AttributeError:
pass
else:
return log(a) - log(b)
raise
