Yeah, sorry for that last message, I'm kind of all over the place
here. The critical piece of info I was missing was that I didn't know
I needed to pass --symbol-prefix argument to g-ir-scanner. Now that
I've done that, some actual API is showing up in Python. I haven't
tested it extensively yet, but it's showing promise:

$ python
Python 2.7.3 (default, Apr 30 2012, 21:18:11)
[GCC 4.7.0 20120416 (Red Hat 4.7.0-2)] on linux2

Although I still haven't written any transfer annotations so most
likely this is leaking memory like crazy at the moment. I'll keep
playing!
