[Xcb] python generator again

Attached is a hackish script which checks if two APIs are the same. It 
needs the ctags programm [1] which is available in Debian. It takes 
two c files as arguments and outputs the difference between the 
APIs. Example output:

$ python tagsgen.py xproto-new.c xproto-old.c 

In xproto-new.c but NOT in xproto-old.c


xcb_query_keymap_keys_end constxcb_query_keymap_reply_t*R
xcb_query_keymap_keys constxcb_query_keymap_reply_t*R
xcb_get_keyboard_control_auto_repeats_end 
constxcb_get_keyboard_control_reply_t*R
xcb_get_keyboard_control_auto_repeats 
constxcb_get_keyboard_control_reply_t*R


In xproto-old.c but NOT in xproto-new.c

Now that I can check the API I shuffle around quite a lot of code. If 
anyone wants to look at it w/o download see http://htom.de/gitweb/
