Fix a double free crash when the required features dialog is shown

Geert,

This doesn't make sense to me. msg is allocated with a starting value, then the 
relevant feature names are added one at a time in the for loop, allocating a 
new string each time.  Where is msg getting double-freed?  ISTM your change 
will leak all of the strings except the last one.
There is still a g_free(msg) inside the for loop, though it's not visible in the patch only.

The msg free I removed is outside the for-loop, and frees msg two lines before it is returned to the calling function. The calling function also calls a free -> double free.

Geert
