I'm not sure how "supported" this is in Python 1.6 and beyond, but you
need to include <compile.h> and <eval.h> (after <Python.h>).

  #include <Python.h>
  #include <compile.h>
  #include <eval.h>

  ...

    PyObject *globals, *locals, *result;
    PyCodeObject *bytecode;

    result = PyEval_EvalCode(bytecode, globals, locals);

The globals and locals should be dictionaries (possibly taken from
PyModule_GetDict()).
