The parameter is just named wrong. If you look at the other callers of
bonobo_ui_util_set_ui, you'll see that the vast majority (including all the
calls in nautilus and evolution) pass in datadir. I used LXR and found a 85
callers, so I couldn't quickly look at all of them to find out if anyone
else made the same mistake as gnome-terminal and passed in the prefix as
documented instead of passing in the datadir which works.

I think anjuta2 is one example.

Your fix looks good to me. Fixing the documentation and variable names in
bonobo is nice, and gnome-terminal should be fixed to pass datadir in any
case.
