Yes it's correct. But pygtk .defs files are slightly reworked.

That was just an example to show some specific things in pygtk. All
languages don't have strong namespaces as Python does.
However, I'm pretty sure we can move that naming issue to the code
generator so it's not a big deal.


I don't have really an opinion about XML vs scheme. XML would need some
work in either the h2def file and code generator, but I don't really see
what it would bring in.
