the usual way to do this is to expose the C objects via the Python
module:
# foo.py
from _foo import flubb, glubb, dubb
# main.py
import foo
foo.flubb(flabb)
if you insist on doing it the other way around, you can emulate from-import
on the C level. see e.g. the "call" function in Modules/_sre.c for an example
(but instead of calling the "func", add it to the local module; see the
"init_sre"
function in the same module for code that adds stuff to the module dict).
