Hum, maybe G_SLICE=debug-blocks will help debugging it?  The example in
the documentation sounds like a likely case...

"An example of a memory corruption scenario that cannot be reproduced
with G_SLICE=always-malloc, but will be caught by G_SLICE=debug-blocks
is as follows:

  void *slist = g_slist_alloc(); /* void* gives up type-safety */
  g_list_free (slist);           /* sizeof (GSList) != sizeof (GList) */
