it seems that it would just be a matter of converting from the ctypes api to the cffi api. Though scanning it i don't see how some things could be done, like examining the stack for windows to see if you passed the wrong amount of arguments.

Yes, ctypes looks implementable with CFFI. If you give it a try, let me know how it goes :)
There are many C extensions for Python that are using this API instead: http://docs.python.org/c-api/ -- and supporting all of that is a challenge.
