Try checking out the gnome-python module from CVS.  There is an h2def.py 
script that can convert most gtk+,etc headers to defs files (it doesn't 
extract all the information extract.py does, and vice versa).  The defs 
files in gnome-python/pygtk/ are fairly complete, so using them directly 
is another option.  You may be interested in using some of the ideas 
from the pygtk code generator which is in gnome-python/pygtk/codegen/
