I don't think the question you're asking makes any sense. GArray is as
generic as it gets in C (it is parameterized; what it isn't is
typesafe, but you can't fix that in plain C).

I'm not sure what GObject has to do with it. GObject is a
heavierweight thing than a C++ class, and isn't as general-purpose.
