SWIG is what we are using to provide Verse bindings in Python. Also, there is 
Boost 

http://www.boost.org/libs/python/doc/

which was used to wrap the OGRE game engine classes in the DIE game:

http://die.sourceforge.net/

The game is basically one big python script, with C++ classes extended in 
python pretty much seemlessly! Definitely worth checking out.
