These are simple ctypes bindings for pulseaudio.

Note that on Ubuntu 16.04 ctypeslib is buggy, resulting in blank compile errors
such as:

    compile for syntax check ...
    running: gccxml /tmp/tmpQSqY1_.cpp -I /usr/include/
    CompilerError:

You will need:

    sudo sed -i 's/"gccxml"/"gccxml.real"/g' \
        /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ctypeslib/codegen/cparser.py

Also note that the same ctypeslib emits symbols in unstable orders, and items
in __all__ in stable but random order. The following patch creates a more
reasonable output:
