           Summary: attempt to release non-allocated block (Glib/Gtk3)
    Classification: Bindings
           Product: gnome-perl
           Version: unspecified

            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: Normal

Hi,

I don't know if this problem is in Glib bindings or Gtk3 or something else,
however the bug is caused directly by a function from Glib, let me try here
(also I don't see Gtk3 component under gnome-perl).

I make a little app with Perl, using Gtk3 and I get "random" memory corruption.
While I was trying to debug it, I found this helpful way: ran it with
G_SLICE=debug-blocks and the script aborts with such message:

GSlice: MemChecker: attempt to release non-allocated block: 0x<address> size=16

which looks like a bug. Please see a minimal script that can be used to
reproduce the issue (100% reproducible on my system). It also contains C code
doing similar and the latter works without problem.

Thanks!

glib (library) 2.32.1
Perl 5.12.4
Glib 1.260 and 1.261
Cairo::Gobject 1.001
Glib::Object::Introspection 0.009 and 0.010
Gtk3 0.006 and 0.007

Glib-1.261/GBoxed.xs - function default_boxed_destroy: I removed the "NOISY"
thing to get the additional message here and got:

$  G_SLICE=debug-blocks perl test.pl
default_boxed_destroy wrapper 0x9467ed0 --- GtkTreeIter 0x946a460
GSlice: MemChecker: attempt to release non-allocated block: 0x946a460 size=16

also, a backstrace with that test.pl:
G_SLICE=debug-blocks gdb perl

Using host libthread_db library "/lib/libthread_db.so.1".
GSlice: MemChecker: attempt to release non-allocated block: 0x889bab8 size=16
