@dagss changed The main work is now done by Lisandro Dalcin: http://hg.cython.org/cython-devel/rev/075511424c24

There's still a problem with formatting of some types, notably all ints are displayed as int and buffers etc. aren't displayed at all.

In order to remedy this, the transform should be moved to after AnalyseDeclarations so that parsed PyrexType objects can be queried for their description, however then one should factor out how cpdef creates a def-node into a post-analysis transform so that copying the doc isn't necesarry.
