Yes, I've seen. Anyway, just to be sure, I executed the following
program and works as expected (gtk+-2.14.5) although I had to set
the titles to see all the columns.

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

int
main(gint argc, gchar **argv)
{
    GtkWidget *window;
    GtkWidget *clist;
    gchar *values[] = {"abc", "def", "ghi", "jkl"};

    gtk_init(&argc, &argv);

    window = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);
    g_signal_connect(window, "delete-event",
                     G_CALLBACK(gtk_main_quit), NULL);

    clist = gtk_clist_new_with_titles(4, values);
    gtk_container_add(GTK_CONTAINER(window), clist);

    gtk_clist_append(GTK_CLIST(clist), values);
    gtk_clist_append(GTK_CLIST(clist), values);
    gtk_clist_append(GTK_CLIST(clist), values);

    gtk_widget_show_all(window);

    gtk_main();

    return 0;
}

gtk_clist_append() dups the strings, so you can do whatever you
want with "values" after the call.

If you're lucky there's something wrong in your splitline(),
if not you're experiencing the result of a previous memory
corruption or hitting a GtkCList bug or... who knows.
