Just because there have been bugs in ctypes in the past doesn't mean
that there are still bugs in ctypes. In my message I said "I would
wait a release or two..." and that has happened since June. The bugs I
was referring to have probably been fixed by now, though I can't say
that definitively.
Just because google says so doesn't mean it is still, or ever was, true
