You can try, but it's messy.  It's not a problem for the annotator but
for the later RTyper.  None is implemented as a NULL pointer by the
RTyper; I don't know how you would distinguish between None-as-a-NULL
and NotImplemented.  You could try to go for something like ((TYPE*) 1),
but this doesn't work on top of ootype, where you really have only one
NULL value.


A bientot,
