Overview of Changes from GLib 2.27.2 to 2.27.3
==============================================
* The GTimeSpec type that was introduced in the 2.27.2 has been
dropped again in favour of APIs that return microseconds as
64-bit integer.
Affected functions:
g_source_get_time
g_periodic_unblock
g_get_monotonic_time
g_get_real_time
The similar GTimeVal struct is still around, but its use is
discouraged.
* GTimer is now using monotonic time unconditionally
* There are some new functions to facilitate error reporting
in async GIO APIs:
g_simple_async_result_take_error
g_simple_async_result_new_take_error
g_simple_async_report_take_gerror_in_idle
* There is new convenience API to us GVariant dictionaries:
g_variant_lookup
* It is now possible to delay sending match rules to the
D-Bus daemon in GDBus:
G_DBUS_SIGNAL_FLAGS_NO_MATCH_RULE
* Support has been added for XDG_RUNTIME_DIR:
g_get_user_runtime_dir
* Various fixes for Win64/MSVC builds have been committed
* Bugs fixed:
620263 Add g_clear_object, g_clear_pointer, g_clear_boxed
633075 update Project Files and sources for MSVC 2008/C89
633381 gsettings Makefile rules should handle empty list...
