Nothing uses this return value, so stop returning it. I think it's weird for an unref function to return a pointer to the object you unreffed. I see how there could be an argument for such a thing... but it seems like it would be better to write code that doesn't require knowing whether the object you unreffed was destroyed.

For information on writing a plugin for Purple, Pidgin or Finch, go
http://developer.pidgin.im and click on API.  From there, see the
HOWTOs in the "Related Pages" section.

You can also generate this documentation locally by installing
doxygen and graphviz dot, then running "make docs" in the
source tree.  The documentation will be in the docs/html directory.
