Bumping the API was not a mistake. It marked the migration from GnomePrint to GtkPrint, which broke GtkHtml's API. GtkHtml no longer depends on nor supports GnomePrint. The API_VERSION should only change when the API actually changes. Incrementing it to match the version number rather than by one was a policy decision, as I recall.
