  This won't work because there is no FILE * in out, the output actually
goes to stdout when doing this.

  Now that's strange, looking quickly at the generated stubs it looks
fine:

     libxslt_xsltSaveResultToFile()...

     FILE * file;
     file = (FILE *) PyFile_Get(pyobj_file);
     ....

     c_retval = xsltSaveResultToFile(file, result, style);
     ....

  This ought to work, really.

  Hum, in the first case, well I don;t have yet support for the case
where the native Python object is not FILE * based. In the second case
it sounds like a bug, but I'm surprized.
