Today I have tried boost.python and was impressed with its power and simplicity. Using it, I was able to marry an utility-level C++ library with Python 2.6 in just three hours, wasting at least half of the time purily because of my Saturday's stupidity.
The only thing that worries me if I think about providing Python scripting for large-scale application is compilation time of the bindings provided by boost.python -- these templates could eat my PC alive.
