Comment(by manuq):

 Well it turns out gconf_client_set_list can't be workarounded like
 gconf_client_get_list, because gconf_value_set_list [1] is not
 introspectable.  So the list of values can't be made.

 [1] http://developer.gnome.org/gconf/stable/gconf-gconf-value.html#gconf-
 value-set-list

 The workaround for get_list is, for example:
 {{{
 from gi.repository import GConf

 cli = GConf.Client.get_default()

 val_list = cli.get('/desktop/sugar/protected_activities')
 assert val_list.type == GConf.ValueType.LIST

 for val in val_list.get_list():
     assert val.type == GConf.ValueType.STRING
     print val.get_string()
 }}}

 If we had gconf_value_set_list we could do something like:

 {{{
 list_of_values = []
 for string in ['one', 'two', 'three']:
     val = GConf.Value()
     val.type = GConf.ValueType.STRING
     val.set_string('hola')
     list_of_values.append(val)

 val_list = GConf.Value()
 val_list.type = GConf.ValueType.LIST
 val_list.set_list(list_of_values) #FIXME
 val_list.set_list_type(GConf.ValueType.STRING)

 cli.set('/test/layouts', val_list)
 }}}
