Unrelatedly, one word of warning about the python bindings, in case if it helps in the future --

Never use the "asynchronous" features. There are deadlock issues at the core of the implementation's design (basically, it calls Python from a non-Python thread ... no mechanism to prevent lock inversion or check that the Python interpreter still exists). It will need a reimplementation prior to them being safe to use.
