filename and gslist->data are pointers to *the same* memory.
When you free the memory -- it does not matter whether you
do g_free(filename) or g_free(gslist->data) -- both pointers
will point to the same freed memory.

Since the problem seems to be an incorrect assumption of how
GSList works and I cannot describe how it actually works more
clearly than above, then either by letting someone with
better English skills to explain it or by you trying harder
to understand me.
