Well, basically, for a C module I guess you want to insert a
pydoctor.model.Module object that describes the module you're
introspecting... here's a start, perhaps?

    lp:~mwhudson/pydoctor/introspect-c-modules

See if that makes any sense :-) You need to run like this:

 .../introspect-c-modules/bin/pydoctor \
 ~/canonical/repos/subvertpy/trunk/subvertpy --introspect \
 subvertpy.client --introspect subvertpy.repos --introspect subvertpy.wc \
 --html-output subvertpy-doc

from somewhere you can import subvertpy.client etc from. The output
looks like this:

    http://people.canonical.com/~mwh/subvertpy-doc/subvertpy.repos.Repository.html

Hope this helps! I think it's quite good for a 20 minute hack :-)

Cheers,
