Name mangling makes wrapping C++ a difficult, but not impossible, job.
You should take at look at the way it is done for other languages in
Swig, <http://www.swig.org>, or possibly Boost.Python,
<http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/>.

The former is more general; the latter is considered the best way to
wrap C++ with Python. I don't know enough about the details of
Boost.Python to know if it would be a better starting point for
UFFI-related work.
