a) Don't know; the last releases of pycdf and pyhdf are from February 2001
and July 2005, respectively.

b) Yes, but just half an hour ago, after I had seen the request for pycdf
here.

I would actually prefer if Andre would apply the patches in some way in
his distribution. The C wrappers for both pycdf and pyhdf are created with
swig,
but the original interface description files are not included in the
distribution. So I patched the generated wrapper code instead of the
original files. Or rather let Travis' alter_codeN do the job;-))
