Coding looks good though I just gave it a once over for obvious errors.
I see you have a functional test but did you update the tests in
tests/glib?  It would be nice to see glib sending a struct and then
getting it back and decoding it correctly.  It would be even nicer to
see python sending it a struct and then getting it back as is.
