I believe you should look at the SWIG docs and then write a typecheck
typemap. Checking foir the type of and array and returning NULL is not
fair play for SWIG, nor for Python. Before returning NULL, and
exception should be set. For this, SWIG provides some 'SWIG_xxx_fail'
macros. Typemaps and fragments are powerfull features, but it takes
some time to learn the right way to write them.
