I figured Id throw my $0.00002 AUD into this... Being a noob to the programming game, Just the ecore_init() seems fine by me as long as ecore_init() documentation also states that eina_init() happens with it. Seeing eina_init() and ecore_init() tells my noobie brain that one must happen before the other otherwise stuff might not work right.
I guess you could consider that the 'grandma' test.
