Quite the contrary, there is no List object, only pointers to elements, so you never have a pointer to a List object. By convention, many functions get and return the pointer to the head, but other algorithms don't care where the list has the head -- or whether it has any at all, you can make a cyclic list of GList items, no problem (of course, you must not use a GLib function that assumes a non-cyclic list).
