This doesn't actually suggest adding error_abort/fatal to GLib. Rather
it adds a general callback hook to GLib. Biggest complaints there
are around the callback concept and difficulty of safely using it,
which I can't disagree with.

I wonder if we would have more luck if we explicitly proposed the
error_abort/fatal concept to GLib instead. At least that would not
hit any of the complaints raised about the callback.

Daniel
