signal-handlers return value gets lost!?

[Peter Lerner <peter lerner bnbt de>]

hi,

i've set up signal for my widget and provided 
marshaller like that and there is no default
signal-handler for "my_signal" in the class struct.

my_signals[MYSIGNAL] =
  gtk_signal_new ("my_signal",
                  GTK_RUN_LAST,
                  object_class->type,
                  GTK_SIGNAL_OFFSET (GtkWidget, my_signal),
                  gtk_marshal_BOOL__POINTER,
                  GTK_TYPE_BOOL, 1, GTK_TYPE_POINTER);


static void
gtk_marshal_BOOL__POINTER         (GtkObject *object,
                                   GtkSignalFunc func,
                                   gpointer func_data,
                                   GtkArg * args)
{
  GtkSignal_BOOL__POINTER rfunc;

  gboolean *ret_val;
  ret_val = GTK_RETLOC_BOOL (args[1]);
  rfunc = (GtkSignal_BOOL__POINTER) func;
  *ret_val = (*rfunc) (object,
                    GTK_VALUE_POINTER (args[0]),
                    func_data);
}



now in user code all i do is to connect this signal and
return FALSE from my callback. 


gtk_signal_connect (GTK_OBJECT(my_widget), "my_signal", (GtkSignalFunc)
my_signal_callback, NULL);

static gboolean 
my_signal_callback(GtkMyWidget *my_widget,
                   GdkEvent *event,
                   gpointer user_data)
{
 .... 
 
 if(test)
    return TRUE 
  else
    return FALSE;
}



then i have a problem ... 

in the widgets implementation i emit "my_signal", and want to 
evaluate the gboolean return value. but the return value is 
always set to TRUE (=1) regardless of what the users callback
returns.


gtk_signal_emit(GTK_OBJECT(my_widget), my_signals[MYSIGNAL],
                event, &ret_val);
printf("ret_val = %d\n", ret_val);


this always prints:

---
ret_val = 1
---


do i have trouble with the GTK_RUN_LAST type of running the 
(non existent) default handler? i could not find out, even
reading back and forth havoc's great sample chapters.

i really would appreciate it if someone could give me hint.
