Why not?  The api exists on FC2, just inside an #ifndef
G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED which we shouldn't be defining in our code
(because it would break LOTS of stuff).  How does it fail for you on
FC2?

Heh.  Well, g_value_set_object_take_ownership() exists in glib-2.2.1
but g_value_take_object() does not.  So, we should use the former.
Granted, it's a <protected> API so I honestly don't see why we're
calling it at all.
