Actually my own leak are my greatest concern. The problem is that having those 
leaks reported because of how glib caches data makes debugging your own code 
harder. 

Any recipe to easily spot or isolate your allocations/dealocations from those 
from GTK/Glib?

How do you know the leak is because I haven't freed the memory or because I've 
freed it, but Glib hasn't?

Thanx,
