Ok, well for anyone browsing the archives I think I figured it out.  You can't 
just pass a Python dictionary to the function, but you can create a new Python 
object that looks like a dictionary, and pass that to your function instead.

===

   %include <std_map.i>
   %module demo
   %template(NewMapInstance) ::std::map<TypeA, TypeB>;

===

   temp = demo.NewMapInstance()
   demo.myfunc(temp)

Cheers,
