I see Mike has already approved it, but I have some additional
comments/recommendations:

* IntPtr data isn't generally useful for .NET delegates, because
delegates support closures automatically for instance methods. I would
suggest you remove the user_data parameter in the methods, and just pass
in IntPtr.Zero. Even better would be to map between a .NET delegate and
a native-type delegate. The generator currently does this for the
various callback funcs, it would be easy to copy what it does.

* Delegate function pointers are only pinned for the duration of a
PInvoke call. If you are setting a handler, you need to keep the GC from
getting at the delegate you passed to C. The current solution used by
the generator is explicitly keeping a reference in a static hash table.
It's suboptimal, but works well enough for now.
