↺ refcounting issue in GLib’s D-Bus implementation

> As with many things in GLib, the allocations in this code use refcounting, rather than new/free, to manage object lifecycles. This makes it quite hard to debug lifecycle issues, because the location of a bug (a ref or unref call which isn’t correct) can be quite far removed (in time and code) from where the effects of that bug become visible. This is because the effects of refcounting problems only become visible when an object’s refcount reaches zero, or when the program ends and its refcount still hasn’t reached zero.
