Using G_STRLOC ends up embedding unique strings of the form
__FILE__:__LINE__ in the compiled binary. We can avoid these
by passing __FILE__ and __LINE__ separately when constructing
the warning text.
This probably reduces the size of the binary as __FILE__ is
likely already contained as string otherwise.
Note that for GCC 2.x this changes behavior because G_STRLOC
also contained __PRETTY_FUNCTION__.

Along the same lines as g_clear_object(), g_set_object() is a
convenience function to update a GObject pointer, handling reference
counting transparently and correctly.
Specifically, it handles the case where a pointer is set to its current
value. If handled naïvely, that could result in the object instance
being finalised. In the following code, that happens when
(my_obj == new_value) and the object has a single reference:
g_clear_object (&my_obj);
my_obj = g_object_ref (new_value);
It also simplifies boilerplate code such as set_property()
implementations, which are otherwise long and boring.
Test cases included.

In g_file_make_directory_with_parents(), the my_error variable is used
for several different purposes throughout the whole function, not all of
which are obvious. This explains the situation with some comments.

We should not advise people to cast the result of
g_hash_table_get_keys_as_array() to a type that looks suitable for use
with g_strfreev(). Advise to use (const gchar **) instead.
Allows sending of multiple messages (packets, datagrams)
in one go using sendmmsg(), thus drastically reducing the
number of syscalls when sending out a lot of data, or when
sending out the same data to multiple recipients.

Fix two problems:
1) If g_socket_service_stop is called before the accept call is requeued,
then the reference count won't decrease and this code will hang forever:
while (G_OBJECT (service)->ref_count == ref_count)
g_main_context_iteration (NULL, TRUE);
2) Sometimes the testcase fails (maybe 1 in 200 times for me):
GLib-GIO:ERROR:socket-listener.c:73:connection_cb: assertion failed
(G_OBJECT (service)->ref_count == 2): (3 == 2)
Aborted (core dumped)
The problem is that depending on ordering, cancellation of the async
listener can require further main context iterations before it releases
the reference on the socket service. Furthermore, in some cases, it
requires at least one iteration.

Add a property to GNetworkMonitor indicating the level of network
connectivity: none/local, limited, stuck behind a portal, or full.
The default implementation just returns none or full depending on the
value of is-available.

Add G_IO_ERROR_CONNECTION_CLOSED as an alias for
G_IO_ERROR_BROKEN_PIPE, and also return it on ECONNRESET.
It doesn't really make sense to try to distinguish EPIPE and
ECONNRESET at the GLib level, since the exact choice of which error
gets returned in what conditions depends on the OS. Given that, we
ought to map the two errors to the same value, and since we're already
mapping EPIPE to G_IO_ERROR_BROKEN_PIPE, we need to map ECONNRESET to
that too. But the existing name doesn't really make sense for sockets,
so we add a new name.

This is a convenience method for creating a GNetworkAddress which is
guaranteed to return IPv4 and IPv6 loopback addresses. The program
cannot guarantee that 'localhost' will resolve to both types of
address, so programs which wish to connect to a local service over
either IPv4 or IPv6 must currently manually create an IPv4 and another
IPv6 socket, and detect which of the two are working. This new API
allows the existing GSocketConnectable machinery to be used to
automate that.
Based on a patch from Philip Withnall.

We intend to keep the list of poll records sorted by (integer) file
descriptor, but due to a typo we are actually keeping it sorted by
pointer address of the GPollFD.
Fix that.

g_settings_has_signal_handlers() checks whether any of the signals has
pending handlers. However, g_signal_has_handler_pending() matches on
exact detail, even when passing 0. Subscribing to one of GSettings'
signals with a detail will fail this check and never connect to the
backend.
Fix this by calling has_handler_pending() with the key as detail as
well.

Add a GSocketListener test program. Currently the only test is a
regression test for bug 712570 (based on a standalone bug reproducer
provided by Ross Lagerwall).
