Is there any free Python to C translator?

Question

Is there any free Python to C translator? for example capable to translate such lib as lib for Fast content-aware image resizing (which already depends on some C libs) to C files?

@Mike: It is perfectly possible to program in a OOP fashion in C. So that is not really relevant. — Hannes Ovrén, Apr 15 '10 at 07:34
@kigurai, It was relevant in the original edit because it was phrased like "classes" was a language feature. — Mike Graham, Apr 15 '10 at 15:17

The fantastic PyPy project which aims to: "translate a Python-level description of the Python language itself to lower level languages", has a C backend. That is one of the lower level languages it aims to translate programs to is C.
