I could do the type checking apart from the Python types, but I think it
would be a good idea to do it "properly" since it's apparently possible.
If my types are be compatible with their base types,
PyArg_ParseTuple(args,"O!:abc",&basetype,&ptr) would do the checking for
me, or does it check for the *exact* type? Also, I like player with
powerful RTTI. :)
