I think this is a problem with gobject-introspection not picking up the right
type for GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE - it thinks it's gint for some reason:

   <constant name="CLOCK_TIME_NONE"
              value="18446744073709551615"
              c:type="GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE">
      <type name="gint" c:type="gint"/>
    </constant>

Can't seem to override the type via a Type: annotations either.

Moving to gobject-introspection for now:

<tpm> pitti, talking of -1: any idea how I can force g-i to accept #define
GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE ((GstClockTime)-1) as GstClockTime or guint64 type? I can
annotate a Value: , which is picked up in the gir file, but it still thinks the
type is gint.
<pitti> tpm: you mean the .gir picks up the uint64 type, or the .gir
erroneously says it's an int?
<pitti> tpm: no off-hand idea, would need to investigate
<tpm> it picks up the uint64 value that I set with Value:  but still has <type
name="gint" c:type="gint"/>
<tpm> alright, thanks
<pitti> that's a bug then indeed

This is a fairly big issue for pygi-based GStreamer-applications, since there
are many functions that take a GstClockTime argument where one would typically
pass GST_CLOCK_TIME_NONE.
