class members generally go through method_wrap or function_wrap, both of which call pyApplyToAlias.
standalone functions are registered by def, which goes through function_wrap – pyApplyToAlias.
delegates and function pointers go through PydWrappedFunc_Ready, which goes through pyApplyToDelegate
accessing D objects goes through get_d_reference (hey, this includes delegates and functions!)

run coffimplib

First things first, install chocolatey.

choco install dmd -version 2.066

do install
download http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/1.9.1/numpy-1.9.1-win32-superpack-python2.7.exe/download
etc etc same for 3.3, 3.4
Turns out, when you create a windows image from an instance, aws loses the ability to retrieve your password. So write it down!
we also need pip to install nose and nose-exclude.
3.4 apparently ships with pip. looks like 2.7.9 does too. for other versions, download get-pip at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pypa/pip/master/contrib/get-pip.py and run it with the target python. there should then be a pip.exe in \PythonXY\Scripts.
Install the packages we need:
\Python27\Scripts\pip.exe install nose nose-exclude
Seems we got our first user who tried to do something with multithreading:
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/vqqihinjxqzcrlibjfbw@forum.dlang.org
It didn't work out too good. ketmar pointed out you need to register non-D threads with thread_attachThis and thread_detachThis, and in fact you do.
So, are there any hooks in python that can be used to call these when python creates a thread?
Supposedly you also need to register non-python threads: https://docs.python.org/2/c-api/init.html#non-python-created-threads. TODO: what happens if you don't do this?
