Well, I managed to do it myself. Here is what I am doing now to do
this. In Python-C/C++ world, if someone wants to do the same thing,
may use this.
Note: For this, am assigning the cStringIO object to sys.stderr once I
do Py_Initialize & then use cStringIO.getvalue() everytime I get
error.
While importing cStringIO module with Python-2.3.3, I faced the
problem of "undefined symbol:PyObject_SelfIter". I could resolve that
also. I have put that note in the post which I had opened for that.

PyObject *obFuncStringIO = NULL;
// Import cStringIO module
modStringIO = PyImport_ImportModule("cStringIO");
if(PyErr_Occurred() || modStringIO == NULL){
printf("pyParserEvaluator::Init::PyImport cStringIO failed:");
PyErr_Print();
goto PY_INIT_ERR;
}
// get StringIO constructor
obFuncStringIO = PyObject_GetAttrString(modStringIO, "StringIO");
if(PyErr_Occurred() || obFuncStringIO == NULL){
printf("pyParserEvaluator::Init: cant find cStringIO.StringIO:");
PyErr_Print();
goto PY_INIT_ERR;
