Subject: r7159: Improve the messages from pidl's validator module. Change the
 IDL file for the echo interface to match the one we use for Windows. The only
 thing different between the two files currently is the names of the scalar
 types and the handling of strings. (This used to be commit
 b264c61061d222347919837600adf809fbadfb13)
