And what about platforms like the JVM or CLR?
Incidentally there were a small but vocal group of Pythonistas who

It seems likely to be easier to port ctypes to Jython/IronPython than
it is to port 500 C extensions to Jython. So more software using ctype
seems like an improvement for those communities.
Yes, both of them have their own FFIs. Seo Sanghyeon started a port of
ctypes for IronPython that should be revived by 'someone'. :-)
