IANA glib dev.
I believe when G_SLICE=always-malloc, the g_slice allocators are
simplified to something like:
g_slice_alloc(block_size) becomes malloc(block_size)
g_slice_free(type, mem) becomes free(mem)
and when -lpthread is used, thread-safe versions of malloc/free are
linked in by the compiler. So, no crash since the memory allocators were
thread safe.
