Is this for the v3.6 or v3.7 API? I'm assuming this is for 3.6 (based off
master). And this might finally clear up some confusion we've been having
regarding this.
In the new 3.7, the ordering should absolutely be:
%import <thing's header>
GR_SWIG_BLOCK_MAGIC2(thing)
It sounds like this is the opposite for the 3.6 way of doing things (which
we normally don't do this way and instead create a .i file for each block
and handle things that way). But I guess this is why we named it MAGIC...
