Yes, or ib_mad_, or ibmad_. And same for other IB_ and ib_ names there.
We really need to do something about names like ib_attr_t.

<rant>
I also would like the number of typedefs libibmad exposes reduced - its not like
you'll be able to convert these structs to anything else transparently
without breaking users - anyone sticks their data in there anyway.
But this is more a matter of taste.
