+- Bugfix: Passing a ``ref`` pointer to the untyped ``pointer`` type is invalid.
+- Bugfix: Updated ``keyval`` example.
+- Bugfix: ``system.splitChunk`` still contained code for debug output.

+- Bugfix: ``dialogs.ChooseFileToSave`` uses ``STOCK_SAVE`` instead of 
+  ``STOCK_OPEN`` for the GTK backend.
