I'm not sure I follow you there. Using cimport to import
functions shouldn't involve #includes at all -- Pyrex should
emit whatever declarations are needed directly into the .c
file.

Can you provide a cut-down example which illustrates the
problem?

All type declarations in a .pxd file get written into the
.h file, because they could potentially be used by functions
that are part of the API.

Anything which is truly internal to the module shouldn't be
declared in the .pxd and shouldn't be declared public, so it
shouldn't end up in the .h file. If that's happening somehow,
it sounds like a bug.

Again, an example would help to clear this up.
