libosinfo is a GLib/GObject based library, so gnulib isn't
really a good fit.

With GTK-VNC we tried mixing gnulib + glib, but the end result
was painful, because the gnulib Win32 sockets compatibility code
clashes with glib Win32 compatibility code. So we removed gnulib
from GTK-VNC a little while back and exclusively use glib
