AFAIK, there is no difference. However, if you 'install' your pxd's as
package data, perhaps you will need to also install a __init__.pyx
alongside the pxd's. For example, from one of my projects, pxd and C
API (plus SWIG typemaps for my objects) are installed inside a
'include' dir (more or less as numpy does):



$ tree ~/lib/python/mpi4py
/u/dalcinl/lib/python/mpi4py
|-- MPI.so
|-- __init__.py
|-- __init__.pyc
|-- __init__.pyo
|-- include
|   `-- mpi4py
|       |-- MPI.pxd
|       |-- __init__.pyx
|       |-- mpi.pxi
|       |-- mpi4py.h
|       |-- mpi4py.i
|       |-- mpi4py_MPI.h
|       |-- mpi4py_MPI_api.h
|       |-- mpi4py_MPI_api_fix.h
|       `-- mpi_c.pxd
|-- rc.py
|-- rc.pyc
`-- rc.pyo
