I have fixed this problem (and the related LP bug 453898) and produced update packages for karmic and lucid, available in my PPA here:

The patch has been contributed upstream but has not yet been reviewed or integrated by the glib development team (see the gnome bug report https:/ /bugzilla. gnome.org/ show_bug. cgi?id= 604857 ).
