Hmm, guess I misunderstood you then. Sorry. You keep talking about 
"different goals" in contexts where it's not clear to me how Cython and 
Nuitka differ in their goals. (but let's don't discuss this in this thread)

It's what you get when, for example, you write a string literal as input to 
a C function that accepts a char*. It's basically a Python bytes string 
mapped into C space, or an "unboxed" bytes string. Cython does these things 
in order to talk to foreign code.
