Your example is useless. GLIB is doing exactly what you asked it to.
GLIB cannot possibly know, and would not want to know, the nature of
your data. You give it a pointer. How does it know the length of the
pointer? How does it know you are not passing it a structure, and
intend to have it copy the structure recursively?
If you need it to do strcpy(), pass the key and value through g_strdup()
before storing.
