For this to work, your library should have been compiled with the same compiler as Python and possibly the same compiler options such as choice of runtime library. Otherwise, they may differ in the content and layout of FILE and also in behaviour. On Unix, this may not be a problem because of the shared runtime but on Windows it can cause crashes.
