You are supposed to unref it.

http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/gconf/gconf-gconfclient.html#GCONF-CLIENT-GET-DEFAULT

        GConfClient* gconf_client_get_default       (void);

        Creates a new GConfClient using the default GConfEngine.
        Normally this is the engine you want.
        
        Returns: a new GConfClient.

I don't know where you got the idea that it shouldn't be unreffed...
