Could you tell us what your exact usecase is? Some things are possible 
to do in other ways. For instance, if there's a type that's sometimes 
"long" and sometimes "short", then Cython doesn't really care about 
that, you can always use "int" in Cython anyway. There might be similar 
workarounds for whatever your case is.

(That doesn't really improve matters of course, I'll agree to this being 
a weakness in Cython.)
