Well, 
if you want to use global variables, you can destroy the dialog but
not the gtk_entrys with the gtk_widget_ref() function.

Before you call your dialog, call gtk_widget_ref() on each of your
gtk_entry. Then when you quit from the dialog, get the text from the
gtk_entrys and the DO a gtk_widget_unref() on each gtk_entry.

I don't think this is a good gtk programing practice(I agree with Carlos
on global variables), but I thing it answer just your question.
