OK, got around to doing this - see

 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=645511

including a patch converting all of GLib to use a
G_DESTROY_NOTIFY_CALLBACK macro built with G_DEFINE_CALLBACK instead
of the unsafe (GDestroyNotify) cast. Not too keen on doing more work
until there's a decision if we want something like that. Discussion in
Bugzilla please. Thanks.
