I wonder if there are some inconsistencies between the 0.16 branch and CVS HEAD, since the branch doesn't use glib and HEAD does. Are you sure you don't have a mix of files? g_free won't compile in the 0.16 branch since glib isn't linked in, so I assume you're talking about CVS HEAD. If there are inconsistencies in HEAD, I'd say send a patch.
