The only thing I can think of, is that the pointer that gtk_entry_get_text
returns to the text isn't the same as the pointer that is stored in the
list.
It might be possible to loop through the list comparing doing strcmp
(Toys->data, selectedToy) on it, and then deleting the one that matches,
although this seems a long winded (and potentially very time consuming) way
of doing it.
