Description 宋文武 2016-04-23 13:14:20 UTC 
When build gjs with gobject-introspection-1.48.0, the testUtf8 in
testEverythingBasic.js fails with:

 Gjs-WARNING **: JS ERROR: Error: Failed to convert UTF-8 string to JS string:
 Invalid byte sequence in conversion input

I find it passing a dangling pointer as utf8_string to the gjs_string_from_utf8 function.

Build gjs with gobject-introspection-1.46.0 doesn't have this issue.
(glib version is 2.48.0 in both cases)

I also use python3 with pygobject to call test_utf8_inout in the Regress.typelib,
and it work fine.

I can confirm this issue on an up-to-date Debian unstable system.
I'm getting
Gjs-Message: JS LOG: running test testUtf8
Gjs-Message: JS LOG: Expected nonconst ♥ utf8 (string) but was  (string)

This is from https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=736517

I believe this is the same failure as another bug that has more discussion as to what its cause is.
