I get the same error I got with libxcb-1.11.

With this SetupRequest:

===
   <struct name="SetupRequest">
     <field type="CARD8" name="byte_order" />
     <pad bytes="1" />
     <field type="CARD16" name="protocol_major_version" />
     <field type="CARD16" name="protocol_minor_version" />
     <field type="CARD16" name="authorization_protocol_name_len" />
     <field type="CARD16" name="authorization_protocol_data_len" />
     <pad bytes="2" />
     <list type="char" name="authorization_protocol_name">
       <fieldref>authorization_protocol_name_len</fieldref>
     </list>
     <pad align="4" />
     <list type="char" name="authorization_protocol_data">
       <fieldref>authorization_protocol_data_len</fieldref>
     </list>
     <pad align="4" />
   </struct>
===

I get this error:

===
xproto.c: In function 'xcb_setup_request_authorization_protocol_data_end':
xproto.c:629:36: error: 'None' undeclared (first use in this function)
      xcb_generic_iterator_t child = None;
                                     ^
xproto.c:629:36: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each 
function it appears in
===

The error stays even if I remove the second "pad align". Just to be sure the 
branch you wanted me to check out is ParametrizedStruct-V3, right?
