Unfortunately "type" is a reserved word in ocaml (and possibly other
languages, which causes the bindings to fail to build:
        make[4]: Entering directory 
`/local/scratch/ianc/devel/committer.git/tools/ocaml/libs/xl'
         MLDEP    
        File "xenlight.ml", line 116, characters 2-6:
        Error: Syntax error
         MLI      xenlight.cmi
        File "xenlight.mli", line 116, characters 2-6:
        Error: Syntax error: 'end' expected
        File "xenlight.mli", line 113, characters 28-31:
        Error: This 'sig' might be unmatched

Ideally we'd make the bindings generator do appropriate substitutions on
keywords but the usual workaround is to s/type/kind for the field name.

BTW, I wasn't going to bounce the patch over this but could 
LIBXL_VGA_INTERFACE_TYPE_DEFAULT not be part of the IDL definition of
the type? I'm not sure why we don't do the same for
LIBXL_TIMER_MODE_DEFAULT already.
