You need to decref ds_obj.

This early return would leak the null cleanup.

It is somewhat weird to use cleanups in "pure Python-facing" code.
Here it is more normal to just use ordinary code, calling decref on the
right paths.

You can't call any Python API, in this case PyString_FromString, before
calling ensure_python_env.

Missing space after the first ",".

Likewise about the ordering.

Phil> +      PyObject *result;

I think this is unused.

Phil> +      fprintf_filtered (file,"%s\n", show_doc_string);

Missing space.

Phil> +      make_cleanup(xfree, show_doc_string);
Phil> +      fprintf_filtered (file,"%s %s\n", show_doc_string, value);

Missing a space on each line.

These lines got joined by mistake.

Phil> +  tmp_name = cmd_name;
Phil> +  param = lookup_cmd (&tmp_name, *show_list, "", 0, 1);

Phil> +  param = lookup_cmd (&tmp_name, *set_list, "", 0, 1);
Phil> +  if (param)
Phil> +    set_cmd_context (param, self);

This is pretty gross.

I don't really understand the logic behind why some add_* functions
return the command object and others do not.  I guess in this case you'd
have to have the code return two command objects, making the resulting
function signature really ridiculous.

No change needed here, IMO, I just wanted to complain.
