You have been subscribed to a public bug: If you execute the sample python script attached, you'll notice that even though the 'activate-link' signal is connected to a callback in the XML passed to the builder, the default gtk_show_uri is executed the same.
Please note that the on_activate_link handler is returning True as the documentation requires if you don't want that the default gtk_show_uri is called.
