I was thinking about the same when porting M2Crypto to py3k (M2Crypto is currently swig-based mix of C-code and Python). Is it even possible to make a mix of Cython, swig-based C, and Python? In the end I rather stayed with plain C, because the combination seems unimaginably awful. (Also, is Cython the best of all of them? What about cffi or Nuitka?)
