Review of attachment 370436 [details] [review]:

Nitpick: s/GtypeClass/GTypeClass/ in the commit message. I’ll fix that when pushing it though.

Do you have an example of the output this produces?

Without this patch:

(gdb) print *pad
$1 = {
  object = {
    object = {
      g_type_instance = {
        g_class = 0x55555577a540
      },
      ref_count = 3,
      qdata = 0x0
    },
[...]

(gdb) print field.value
$2 = {
  g_type = 64,
  data = {{
      v_int = -402635184,
[...]

      },
      ref_count = 3,

Pushed to master as d2c49106a459fe5887ba3e3907ed7fa5f57035d3, thanks!
