Not in this case no.

We use gtk_stock_list_ids() to actually generate the enum values
array which we feed to g_enum_register_static() (so that code
runs directly from our _get_type() function for that enum type).

It could be done differently, but as I mentioned, that would mean
refactoring the code to not use an enum type for the stock id selector
editors (not exactly an easy quick fix).

The quick and dirty fix to work around this issue would be to just
not register the stock list when DISPLAY is NULL (which would result
in an empty enumeration in the GIR output, which is not really a big
deal as I don't see that enum as important to add to the GIR).
