so the following should work then:

void
save_value (GValueArray *values) {
   GValue val = {0, };

   g_value_init (&val, G_TYPE_VALUE_ARRAY);
   g_value_set_boxed (&val, values);

   error = NULL;
   if (!dbus_g_proxy_call (proxy, "SetValue", &error,
                           G_TYPE_VALUE, &val, G_TYPE_INVALID,
			  G_TYPE_INVALID))
     {
       g_warning ("error");
     }

   g_value_unset (&val);
}

Cool - Great work!
