I wanted to cleanup code like:

ptr = sl_alloc(...);
sl_ allocator already passed multiple fuzz testing so it should be stable.
Are many people still running GLib versions older than 2.10, or GTK+
versions older than 2.12? If not, we should probably bump the minimum
GLib and GTK+ versions after the Wireshark 1.6 branch is created. This
would let us clean up quite a bit of code in the trunk.
The one thing I know that we'd lose support for is vanilla Solaris 10
(it comes with glib-2.4 and gtk-2.4.9). I've got dozens of systems
running Wireshark like that, but I also know that my days of doing so
are numbered.
