This is what I would expect it to do, because my understanding is that
g_list_remove_link() assumes that "list" is the head of a linked list.

If the linked list only contains one element, hence "list" is also the
last element, then removing "link" when "link" is pointing at head
will result in a linked list with zero elements.
