From what I've seen, blackdog did quite a lot of haxe stuff for
Geany, like his hxDev-plugin, but at some point didn't update it
anymore.

Well, a patch for changing a "2" into a "3" is not really necessary.

But I don't understand how you get the different highlighting, like
for gint, gchar and so on.
