Hi David,

Sorry, I forget to attach the valgrind dump to this. I was not sure if my
implementation was ok, so I wanted to ask if I've done something wrong
first.

 Process terminating with default action of signal 11 (SIGSEGV)

However, I can't see how this error can relate to the wrapping/unwrapping
macros generating C structure?

Thanks a lot for your time
