Notice this in your code:
static PyTypeObject ca_Type = {
PyObject_HEAD_INIT(NULL)
};
You are creating a "type" object. It shouldn't be a surprise that it is
displayed as a <type>, just like int and dict.
In a sweeping overgenerality, C modules define types and Python modules
define classes. You could redefine the __repr__ method to display "<class
ca.ca>" if you want.
