".py" -> ".so" instead of ".pyx" -> ".so", yes.

Latest Cython also has a "cythonize" script that can compile and build
modules ("cythonize -i pkg/module.py" -> "pkg/module.so").

That sounds a bit old-school, yes. To compile a Cython module, it can be as
simple as this:

"""
from distutils.core import setup
from Cython.Build import cythonize

setup(
    ext_modules=cythonize('hello.py'),
)
"""

And it will avoid rebuilding if it's up-to-date, just like make does.

(This is getting quite off-topic for this list, though...)
