gtk_drag_get_data() is the name of a *function*.  Unless you use bindings
for some exotic language (apologies to LISPers) gtk-drag-get-data is not
a vaild name, function names can only contain underscores.  So I'm not
sure what you mean.

Anyway, for *signal* names both forms are recognized and equivalent,
"drag-data-get" or "drag_data_get".

The canonical form is with dashes, e.g. "drag-data-get".  The API
documentation should always display signal names in this form.
