Doesn't scikit already have an obvious way to add C code? It's Python. There's Cython/raw CPython API if you don't care about compatibility with alternative implementations, and ctypes (shudder) if you do.

Way off-topic, but are you saying that ctypes is less pleasant than the CPython API? My experience with the latter wasn't all that pleasant...
