The issue is that the GTK drag and drop API lives in the GTK namespace, but operates on a GdkDragContext object under the GDK namespace. This is not allowed with introspection-based bindings, because the method cannot be reconciled with the object. Of course, this is perfectly valid at the C level, because there are only functions. Which means that the gtk_drag_* API has to be treated as functions, e.g.: Gtk3::drag_finish($context, $delete, time); The old Gtk2 bindings would "cheat", and move the API under the GdkDragContext namespace, hence the change.
