Why would you want one? If pyevent works, what makes you think a swig  
wrapped would be better? I haven't been impressed with swig, and  
apparently Guido van Rossum hasn't either:

"I've yet to see an extension module using SWIG that doesn't make me  
think it was a mistake to use SWIG instead of manually written  
wrappers. The extra time paid upfront to create hand-crafted wrappers  
is gained back hundredfold by time saved debugging the SWIG-generated  
code later."
