Yeah, that's the fix. I spoke briefly with Gonzalo Paniagua Javier on IRC, the original author of g-k-s, who implied he had no immediate plans to rewrite the binding (I guess his schedule is more likely to be tied to openSUSE 11.3 than our rather more urgent Lucid release). So unless someone else steps up within the next few weeks, this regression will stand for Lucid.

It's made more complex because it seems the g-k-s API bears little relationship with what GAPI produces from the C source, so either every app needs to be ported to a brand new API, or significant time needs to be spent doing the binding by hand rather than via tools like GAPI.
