I just noticed that this swallows exceptions. It should have one of the
"except" declarations at the end of the signature to enable proper
exception signalling to the calling C/C++ code.

I admit that searching for "api" isn't really helpful here, but at least
the page on "interfacing with external C code" shouldn't be all that hard
to find in the given context. It contains this section:
