In PyInt_FromString(), please change the type of the first arg from char * to const char *. That is, of course, if the function indeed does not write to the string. (I took a quick look at the code; it doesn't appear to.) If the function does modify the string, it should be documented. I'm getting a compiler error in some C++ code when I use a std::string::c_str() as the arg. Of course, I could cast away the const, but paranoid as I am, I'd like reassurance that I can do so with impunity. :-)
