Comment 21 for bug 156697

:-) well the comment seemed to indicate such.

I'll go check out some python applets tonight that have a habit of changing the icon. And see if I can provoke them into an assertion since they should generate an assert if they try an unref a pixbuf that has already been destroyed. I may be wrong about the number of python applets that use it. If this does, in fact, turn out to be an issue my feeling is that it would just be best to remove the python bindings for the function... or if possible direct redirect the python binding to set_icon (don't know how easy that is )
