ibeta_inv is defined like this:

        template <class T1, class T2, class T3, class T4, class Policy>
        inline typename tools::promote_args<T1, T2, T3, T4>::type  
           ibeta_inv(T1 a, T2 b, T3 p, T4* py, const Policy& pol)

So, it's not a function, it's function template and unless it's instantiated
for specific types, you won't have anything to call.
