You might want to take a look at OOF2. If includes a distutils command for
building a shared library. I believe it tries to install the library to
$prefix/lib which may not be what you want, but it might help you to find the
right incantation to at least build the thing.

Will your code be open source? We have many requests for SUNDIALS wrappers on
the scipy list, and it would be great to satisfy them.
