Change this to:
p.err('%s is an unknown func index type!'%type(ind))

Stylistically, I'd prefer something with less type checking.  
Perhaps something along the lines of the following.  (Untested.)

def getCorrectInd(p, ind):
    if type(ind) in [NoneType, list, tuple]:
        result = ind
    else:
        try:
            result = atleast_1d(ind).tolist()
        except:
            raise ValueError('%s is an unknown func index type!'%type(ind))
    return result
