Comment:

 I can't say much about the intent of this patch, but as to its contents:
  * If your functions are not used elsewhere, make them `static`. There's
 no need for the extra prototypes. If they are used elsewhere, the
 prototypes need to go in the headers, of course.
  * Can `g_build_filename` ever fail? Asserting on the result seems pretty
 drastic, and probably unnecessary.
  * You've used spaces instead of tabs for indent.
  * Please add spaces after commas.
  * I'm not sure if we can use GIO on Windows. Someone will have to clarify
 that point (maybe we've updated requirements so it's okay.)
  * A status of `G_IO_STATUS_ERROR` will trigger the `continue` and you'll
 probably stuck in an infinite loop.
  * What's up with the odd condition on line 186? I think you should just
 re-use the `status` variable there.
  * ''derp'' is not a useful debug category.
  * (Some parts of) GByteArray may be too new for us.
