While working on this approach, I have realized that this might not be
a viable option. Basically, this would work for the Win32 and Darwin
APIs but since the gnome-keyring and kwallet function implementations
reside in their own respective library, on systems where
gnome-keyring/kwallet are not available, you'd have symbols for the
functions but the library to actually perform the work, even if it is
just setting the auth provider to NULL, will not be there. I think
the only way to get this working right now is to continue to use SWIG
ignore patterns for the necessary functions. Thoughts?
