Latest version of glib uses typeof() magic to cast the return value of g_object_ref to match its argument, instead of returning a 'void *'. A few places in the code were casting the arg to G_OBJECT() which was then incompatible with the variable we assigned the result to. The parameter casts were always redundant so just remove them.
