I strongly opposed CObject deprecation in 2.7, as you can see in
<http://bugs.python.org/issue9675> and mailing list archives.

In (external module) pybsddb
<http://www.jcea.es/programacion/pybsddb.htm> I support Python 2.3, 2.4,
2.5, 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, 3.2 and 3.x. Having to deal with CObject/Capsule was
an undesired pain, but the actual support has been painless.

What problems are you finding trying to support both CObject and Capsule?.
