A couple comments:

static PyObject *
posix_fsync(PyObject *self, PyObject *args, PyObject *kwargs)
{
    PyObject *retval = NULL;
    auto PyObject *fdobj;
    auto int full_fsync = 1;

Why are you using the "auto" storage class specifier? I know that "explicit is better than implicit", but I really can't see a good reason for using it here (and anywhere, see http://c-faq.com/decl/auto.html).

# ifdef __APPLE__
    res = fcntl(fd, F_FULLFSYNC);
# endif
# ifdef __NetBSD__
    res = fsync_range(fd, FFILESYNC|FDISKSYNC, 0, 0);
# endif

Since __APPLE__ and __NetBSD__ are exclusive, you could use something like
# if defined(__APPLE__)
    res = fcntl(fd, F_FULLFSYNC);
# elif defined(__NetBSD__)
    res = fsync_range(fd, FFILESYNC|FDISKSYNC, 0, 0);
# endif

Do you really need to use goto for such a simple code?
