I haven't really been following what you're trying to do here so pardon
me if this is rubbish...

If all you want to do is pass around a GdkPixbuf plus "stuff" as a GValue
then can't you just register a new GBoxed type which contains the various
bits-n-pieces and use g_value_set_boxed() and friends. The whole point of
GValue is that it can hold any type of variable. You shouldn't need to
abstract it any further.

Cheers,
