Okay, thanks. I didn't know this. I was wondering how the appropriate 
cairo_destroy stuff got into my code when I never call these functions 
from Vala.

It seems Evan Nemerson is on the case - yay! - but I'd like to know a 
little more about this inline thing. Do you have an example so I can get 
the picture? (I'm a Pythoner who tripped over Vala and I'm still rubbing 
my chin.)

I will do that, the cairo.vapi has me curious. Thanks.
