Simple test case

If a GtkFileChooserButton is created and then has its file set twice before hitting the main loop, GObject complains about unref-ing non-GObjects.

Obviously this looks dumb, but Meld does this for some (relatively) sane reasons.

Still happening in current master. I didn't quite get to the bottom of it when I looked at it this weekend.
Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2015-08-06 12:58:43 UTC 
Fixed with some help from Dan Winship.
