Subject: little bug in Glib 1.314 and 1.320
Date: Wed, 13 Jan 2016 15:31:05 +0100
To: bug-Glib [...] rt.cpan.org

Hi, I recently stepped on a bug in Glib 1.320, and found that it was introduced in 1.314 with the new boxed GBytes type. It's trivial, actually, you correctly check the glib version once at the top of GBoxed.xs, but not below in the functions. This leads to compile errors when glib is too old to have GBytes (as on RHEL 6). The attached patch fixes the problem. Thanks and regards, Torsten Lüttgert

No, the patch looks fine to me. Please go ahead.
