Oh yes, it rocks.

The thing is that I experienced the CPU consumption bug on OS X 10.2.8
using glib-2 from fink which is at 2.0.6, while I could see it work on
my x86 RHL9+XD2 laptop using glib-2 version 2.2.2. 
So what I meant to say, was that I probably should try to build a more
recent glib on OS X  and test again.

Thanks - Apple makes really nice hardware but, damn, it's a lot more
difficult to find PPC Linux packages than for x86 :-]
