Last time I checked I think they didn't support the preprocessor yet,
and I do think you want access to macros. Macro constants are easy if
you have access to the preprocessor, I don't know about macro
functions... perhaps those should remain the user's burden. I would
certainly welcome a good pxd generator.

There is one such generator out there, can't seem to find it right
now. I think it uses gccxml (which parses C++ and generates xml).
There's also ctypesgen, which is also based on gccxml.

I think clang or gccxml would be easier and less of a hack than swig,
although I haven't looked at swig's implementation.
