class CDLL(object)
    An instance of this class represents a loaded dll/shared
library, exporting functions using the standard C calling
convention (named 'cdecl' on Windows).
 
The exported functions can be accessed as attributes, or by
indexing with the function name.  Examples:
 
<obj>.qsort -> callable object
<obj>['qsort'] -> callable object
 
Calling the functions releases the Python GIL during the call and
reaquires it afterwards.

class PyDLL(CDLL)
    This class represents the Python library itself.  It allows to
access Python API functions.  The GIL is not released, and
Python exceptions are handled correctly.
