g_slist_alloc

[Santosh]

hello,
        The function g_slist_alloc (singly linked list) allocates the
 memory well for sometime. But after a few allocations it gives 
segmentation fault. If I allocate the memory myself by using 
g_new(GSList, 1), it works fine.

        I also tried the Allocators, I changed the allocator to allocate
12, 24, 256 elements instead of the default 128, but segmentation fault
still occurs at the same point.

        Is there any limit on the allocation or is it a bug? I am using
the glib 2.0 version.
                        Thank you,
                        with regards,
