Thanks, Lisandro and Robert, for your feedback.

My primary concern was to have the *.pxd files in the source tarball, not
so much their installation.

I am using numpy.distutils, and so use config.add_data_files() function, which
does the job, and also makes them to be installed along the compiled
modules. I have also (wrongly) added the *.pyx files in the same way,
but there is probably no reason for them to be installed?

Thanks!
