* The "typelib" is a binary, readonly, memory-mappable database
* containing reflective information about a GObject library.
* What the typelib describes and the types used are the same for every
* platform so, apart the endianness of its scalar values, the typelib
* database must be considered architecture-independent.
*
* The format of GObject typelib is strongly influenced by the Mozilla XPCOM
* format.
