I've fixed that, and run all of the parameter names through a test to 
filter out *any* python keyword (on the python (2.7) on which the 
generator is run).  Note that I went with the suffixed rather than 
prefixed for (in_ rather than _in) for the names.  Those were the only 
cases found with that check, btw.

I've eliminated a couple of other name-pollution issues, but there's 
still a dozen or so "shouldn't be there" names in the final import 
namespace for GL.  Unfortunately, using __all__ rather bloats the 
modules (there's a *lot* of names in the namespaces). So I've been doing 
that cleanup one-by-one with renames to _ prefixed names.

I'll need to re-run the Linux tests, as those changes have modified 
*hundreds* of files, and then I still need to get the basic Win32 tests 
done to do the beta 1 release.

Thanks,
Mike
