Oddly enough, gi/Vala translated to this for me (which is why I didn't catch
this earlier). And I ended up removing this patch anyhow, so it's a moot point,
but I'll be sure to use the TelepathyGLib namespace in the future (for
consistency/etc.).

Is that true for all generics (eg, GLib.HashTable), or just primitive arrays?

We'll see how it all shakes out, but Vala is pretty good about this, so I'd
hate to do a bunch of casting around generics in other cases.
