Why reinvent yet another wheel when you could make Cython a common language 
to write extensions and wrapper code for both? Even if that requires a few 
feature restrictions for Cython users or adaptations to their code to keep 
it portable, it's still better than forcing users into a complete vendor 
lock-in on both sides.
