Well, there was a GetTextChat function, you know... I just renamed it to
describe what it does.

Two reasons:
1) that's documentation;
2) that will avoid some fool to try to free it. ;-)

You're partly right: I forgot to free the GmTextChat!

But for the rest: when the main window is freed, it frees its children ;
the chat window is one of those. The text view is a child of the chat
window, and the text buffer a child of the text view...

Hmmmm... ok, I'll add them also for the other functions that lack in in
src/chat_window.cpp.
