Be very careful...

Singly linked lists are bad for performance under some
conditions (deleting an element from the list is painful,
as you have to find it first). GList is probably better
in most cases...

Doubly linked lists have a small overhead in space, but
there are probably better ways of saving memory than
doing this.
