The warnings are back and now I seem to get all of them.
I have a slight suggestion for an improvement though, in creator.py line 
158 the message is prepared like this:

   msg = [ 'Declaration "%s" could not be exported.' % full_name ]

That is, the message only contains the name of the declaration (which is 
not unique) and sometimes it seems pyplusplus would output several 
identical messages (which actually refer to different versions of 
overloaded methods but as only the name is printed this is not visible).
So could we just change this to:

    msg = [ 'Declaration "%s" could not be exported.' % decl ]

All the declarations already have a suitable __str__() method that 
creates the full signature, so the above makes it much easier to exactly 
identify the actual declaration.
