Comment(by anderson.lizardo@…):

 Attached a new patch (boost_python_unsigned_converter_fix_no_ctypes.patch)
 to be applied on top of the already applied one.

 This removes the dependency on ctypes added by previous patch. It seems
 ctypes is not available on all architectures/OSes, so instead add static
 methods to test_builtin_converters.cpp that return the sizes of the C++
 types we need.

 Also do a few renames to functions added to test_builtin_converters.py so
 that the line length remains sane.
