And using a normal shareable image and ctypes, then it also works in

 Soon as you mentioned “ctypes”, I had to have a look. ;)
 I’m not a fan of wildcard imports. I know you tend to need a lot of stuff
from ctypes, but I prefer to do
      import ctypes as ct
 so you can then write
      memedit.memedt.argtypes = [ct.c_char_p, ct.c_char_p, ct.c_int]
     memedit.memedt.restype = ct.c_int
 etc.

I have an algorithm to decide whether to wildcard import
or not:
wildcardimport = isOnlyOptionInLanguage() ? true : (isScriptLanguage() ? rng.nextDouble() > 0.1 : rng.nextDouble() > 0.9)
