ctypes should have nice interface from which one could get maximum and minimum values etc information about numeric's data types. for integers this is quite trivial, but at least long double is a bit trickier one.

This enchantment overlaps with sys -module's sys.float_info (new in 2.6) and sys.long_info (new in 2.7).

Is this enhancement still relevant for ctypes or can the issue be closed as "won't fix"?
