fix

See attached patch. The libtool invocation in the patch is required, otherwise the linker will try to link against the version of glib installed in /usr/lib, instead of the built version!

The patch also obviates the clunky hack needed to fix a previous bug (bug 612099) in this test.

This probably wasn't noticed before either because people don't have gdb installed or they had a recent enough version of glib installed, either of which would mask this bug.

This was fixed in bug #621368. Sorry for the delay in reviewing your patch.
