You shouldn't need to cast it at all; Pyrex should
accept assignment to something of type ArrayType
as-is.

The downside is that it will insert a runtime type
check that isn't really necessary. I'll have to think
some more about how to address that. Perhaps there
needs to be some way to declare that "this function
is declared in C as returning PyObject *, but it really
return something of type whatever".
