I never heard about that, but you can setup a handler to catch all the 
g_print/g_printerr and do what you want with them. This is done with 
g_set_print_handler and g_set_printerr_handler (see 'message output and 
debugging functions' in the manual). There's also a higher level handler to 
catch g_log() messages only (see g_log_set_handler in 'message logging')
