Actually, I think testing the C API is precisely the kind of area where you don't want to involve a third-party, especially not a moving target (Cython is actively maintained and generated code will vary after each new Cython release). Besides, Cython itself calls the C API, which means you might end up involuntarily testing the C API against itself. If anything, testing the C API using ctypes or cffi would probably be more reasonable... assuming we get ctypes / cffi to compile everywhere, which currently isn't the case.
