I changed these, because it seems like the right thing to do.
However, I noticed an important reason for using G_TYPE_POINTER in
a signal handler -- when marshalling a GST_TYPE_PLUGIN, for example,
the plugin structure is copied, the signal handlers called, and
the structure is then freed, which is not necessarily what we want
in all cases.
