Ok, what about struct members starting with an uppercase? that change in
Ruby recently broke the LibUSB wrapper I wrote, because it maps C-struct
member names directly to Ruby Struct member names, and one of them starts
with an uppercase, don't ask me why.

About the lack of a proper ?= suffix: I don't know what kind of ëÔthetic
rules go into saying that "?" is ok, "=" is ok, and "?=" is not ok. I'd
think it would make sense to either add "?=" or remove "?", but the
current situation does not make sense to me.

I guess I could pretend the "?" suffixes don't exist.
