If this is purely a matter of source code layout, then
there's an alternative availalable in Pyrex: if you
name your source files

   pkg.foo.pxd

and

   pkg.foo.pyx

then they can be anywhere in the source tree (as long as
the .pxd can be found on the -I path) and the module will
be assumed to be named pkg.foo at run time.

I don't know whether Cython still supports this, though.
