Thanks, I figured Python.h had all that stuff already included. That
got my module to compile, but newframe is just returning a string of
bytes instead of a PyFrameObject now. If I've got a cdef PyFrameObject
*frame in a 'def' python function, how do I return that as a PyObject,
i.e., an instance of types.FrameType?
