There already was next to none left, thanks to the _construct()
functions.

I should have been more precise : we use gtk_type_new() to init the
parent, never the derived type :

Gtk_Scrollbar::Gtk_Scrollbar() 
	: Gtk_Range(GTK_RANGE(gtk_type_new(c_class.get_type())))

I tried once to call gtk_type_new() to init the derived type, and
signal redirection wouldn't work properly, remember ? This was back in
april or may.

I'm afraid not, at least not yet. Check scrolledwindow.gen_h and see
what I had to do to make it work again.
