python_code is a C string containing the raw bytes from your pyc file.
Casting that to a PyObject pointer will not magically transform it into

<scratching my head> well yeah, I kind of didn't think that through..
A pyc file contains the following:
1) An 8 byte header containing a magic number.
2) A "marshal" serialization of the code object.
So, in order to transform those contents into a code object, you need to
skip the 8 byte header and an unmarshal the rest. Basically, replace the
line above with something like this:
codeobj = PyMarshal_ReadObjectFromString(python_code+8, size-8);
mainobj = PyImport_ExecCodeModule("multiply", codeobj);
where codeobj is of type (PyObject *).
Once that works, add magic number checking and exception handling to taste.
Thanks. That's exactly what I was looking for.
