When g_signal_emit() returns, all handlers have been called.

It may look weird in the source in regards with g_object_set()
because in g_object_set(), all the properties in the va_list
are set first, and a list of "notify" signals are "accumulated",
they are emitted after applying the properties but before
returning from g_object_set().
