Hi Stuart,

Most of the CXCursor kinds have been demand added.  Feel free to flesh out additional ones as needed, and submit patches for review.

In my experimentation, I've noticed is that there appears to be many missing CXCursorKind enums in the clang-c/Index.h header.  As an example, I declared a small function in a test file:

I don't think the python code is doing anything wrong when visiting the children.  I looked at MakeCSCursor(Stmt *S, ...) in CXCursor.cpp (libclang) and noticed that the function is are largely un-implemented.  I can walk down and find the CallExpr (f1();).
