Careful: The equivalent of malloc() and a NULL check is g_try_malloc().
g_malloc() aborts on failure to allocate.

The line to draw is whether this only happens at startup or whether this
is called at runtime *and* you are willing to consequently handle the
possible NULL return in all callers.

Andreas
