Attempted a typeid of NULL pointer!

Hi!

A simple one: I'm trying to wrap a function that returns 
a shared_ptr of a wrapped type (this type has been wrapped
with shared_ptr as its held_type). Everything goes fine
as long as the shared_ptr holds a valid pointer. If its
value is NULL (which is a valid value within the wrapped 
C++ context), it raises the following exception:

        RuntimeError: Attempted a typeid of NULL pointer!

Shouldn't it return None?
