Ok, it's mostly us, with a tinsy bit of GTK:

They marshal the parameter as a G_TYPE_POINTER which is as about as
opaque and unusable as you can get. Certainly it is not the
GtkNotebookPage* that they said it was in the .defs data.

But we're not. We were skipping it as a fallback in a default block in a
switch statement, and worse losing track of the warning message. That's
all bad, more or less, so I did something about it. Building on Stefan's
work,
bzr://research.operationaldynamics.com/bzr/java-gnome/hackers/andrew/notebook-signals/

Stefan, if you take that branch and do the work to document the public
API you wish to expose and to finish up the test case you started on,
then I'd say we can merge it to 'mainline' fairly quickly.
