This method is specific because it expects the last argument to be of the
correct GdaHolder's type (ie. gchar * for G_TYPE_STRING, gint for
G_TYPE_INT, ...). And this is not correctly handled by the automatic toole
such as vapigen of GObjectIntrospection generator (as a matter of fact this
method is excluded from introspection).

So I suggest that you don't use this method at all from Vala, but do it
yourself like:
holder = gda_set_get_holder (...)
value = ...
gda_holder_set_value (holder, value)
free (value)
