This is standard practice, but of course has to be done with some
care.
In general, only macro and type definitions should live outside
the extern "C" sections, #includes must live outside those sections.
Changing the PyAPI_* macros would help with this, but I'm not sure whether
that's a catch-all solution. If it's not, then it's better to stick
with the extern "C" sections.
