%%%import bpy

create a nurb-surface with function class bpy.types.BlendDataCurves.new()

surf = bpy.data.curves.new(name= "test" , type = 'SURFACE')

code for splines and control-points

obj = bpy.data.objects.new("test_obj", surf)
bpy.context.scene.objects.link(obj)

the code will produce a curve, it shoud be a surface.
the outliner-editor shows me a curve-symbol ,it shoud be a surface-symbol.
the 3D-View-editor , in editmode, shows a menu for curve , it shoud be a menu for surface.
documentation => class bpy.types.BlendDataCurves(bpy_struct), type (enum in [‘CURVE’, ‘SURFACE’, ‘FONT’])

create a surface with primitive function to compare the results.

%%%It's failure of code which tries to guess object type from Curve datablock. It's needed in cases when you're changing object datablock.
Probably it can be improved so it wouldn't change object's type when it's not obvious which type to use and when both of Curve and Surface types can be used.
Will look into this issue.%%%
