[Vala] Regression in 0.7.5 with GnomeKeyring



Hello, Vala developers/users.  I just wanted to bring some attention
to a very annoying regression in 0.7.5 that makes using
gnome-keyring-1.vapi impossible in the hopes of getting it fixed
before 0.7.6.  For my project, I've had to warn people away from 0.7.5
which is the kind of headache that I don't like to have.  I'm used to
new releases making my previous code uncompilable and accept that I'm
on a vala treadmill, but I really don't like having to ban the use of
new releases.  My codebase is now only compilable with one particular
version of the compiler.

The bug has a comment that points out the exact commit that broke it,
but there doesn't seem to be any movement on a fix.

It seems like a test could be written to make sure that all shipped
bindings are at least valid syntax.  (I know, I know, write it
myself.)
