Calling a module with a gpointer to data.

[Jim Parker <hopeye cfl rr com>]

G'Day !

My application uses plug-ins to extend the functionality.  When I load a
plug-in I build a menu structure in the normal way.  But when I attach a
callback to the menu.  The data pointer seems to be corrupt.

Currently I am just passing a text string.  But when I call the function it
does not print properly (garbage characters).  It works great for the menu
items that were created in the main program.

Do I need to do something differently ?
