How are you planning to continue with this?  Have you considered parsing
the .defs files that come with PyGTK and generating code from that?  I
did it once for Scheme and it saved me some tedium, although I still
needed to hand tune some things and the result wasn't pretty.  On the
other hand, Mercury may be too different from imperative languages to
make this an option.
