Well, to be honest, the g_ stuff serves as an abstraction layer; I don't
think that currently there is any problem with using the plain C type
instead of the g_ type in this (or other) functions, but for consistency's
sake and for the case that this typedef will become more complex depending
on other platforms supported in the future I would consider this a minor bug
and opt to get it fixed.
