Actually, I've updated ctypesgen so that it marks apr_off_t as a
64-bit int, so that you don't need to do any fancy math to convert
between apr_off_t and Python integers. If you update to the latest
version of ctypesgen and rerun autogen.py, you'll be able to convert
an apr_off_t to a Python integer by simply accessing "progress.value"
and "total.value". We should do this in our wrapper function (i.e. in
_progress_func_wrapper) so that the library users won't have to.

Cheers,

David
