This just adds locking around the reference handling to avoid race conditions with concurrent access. pyglib_gil_state_{ensure,release}() is used all over the place in pygobject, but it was forgotten in this particular function. SRU TEST CASE: This is rather hard to reproduce, as it is a race condition in a multi-threaded program. As Daniel can reproduce it rather well, I suggest to ask him to verify the SRU. See also bug 1083694 which is the same hang for software-center; this also has a test case.
