That would be exactly identical to g_idle_add. g_idle_add calls the
callback the next tiem the main loop is iterated. For some reason,
Kyryll's main loop is taking 30 seconds to iterate; it sounds like his
idle sources aren't working right, but his file descriptor sources
are.

If you're using your own main loop, you probably want to use
purple_timeout_add() rather than g_idle.
