=head2 GValue
GValue is GLib's generic value container, and it is because of GValue that the
run time type handling of GObject parameters and GClosure marshaling can
function, and most usages of these functions will be from those two points.
Client code will run into uses for gperl_sv_from_value() and
gperl_value_from_sv() when trying to convert lists of parameters into GValue
arrays and the like.

/****************************************************************************
* GValue handling
*
* we have code here to handle the fundamental types listed in the API
* reference, plus the G_TYPE_ENUM and G_TYPE_FLAGS fundamentals.
* we won't, however, handle any *other* fundamentals created by
* g_type_fundamental_next(). if we want to handle that, we probably
* need to move away from a switch statement to an array of function
* pointers (at least for the non-standard ones) so that the perl bindings
* for the library that creates these new fundamentals can register
* conversion functions for them.

=item gboolean gperl_value_from_sv (GValue * value, SV * sv)
set a I<value> from a whatever is in I<sv>. I<value> must be initialized
so the code knows what kind of value to coerce out of I<sv>.
Return value is always TRUE; if the code knows how to perform the conversion,
it croaks. (The return value is for backward compatibility.) In reality,
this really ought to always succeed; a failed conversion should be considered
a bug or unimplemented code!
