annotate src/core.h @ 12804:86d67bd4ef24

[gaim-migrate @ 15151] I believe this fixes the "attempt to free unreferenced scalar" messages that everyone was getting and doesn't seem to break anything else. Will Thompson said it worked for him, so that's at least two of us. Let me know if this breaks things for anyone. committer: Tailor Script <[e-mail]>
