<pre>I have noticed that there are other gobject derived classes that also do not
properly chain up the finalize method to the parent classes. For example the
PopplerFontInfo class does not do this either. However, some do. For example
PopplerAttachment does.
Not calling the parent classes finalize method is a potential memory leak.
This also prevents some registered callbacks from being called at destruction
time as needed.</pre>
