"kB" is used by GLib to mean 1000 bytes exactly -- not 1024. It is
therefore incorrect to translate this to KiB. Same for the other units.
The original commit ef3e5917ca fixing this
problem was reverted, so I'm applying it again.
See http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-i18n/2011-July/msg00078.html
for more information.
Since there was nothing guaranteeing synchronization of the
assignments to checked and clockid, it would be possible for one
thread to set clockid = CLOCK_MONOTONIC, and for another thread to see
checked = TRUE but still clockid = CLOCK_REALTIME.

Change the unix signal watch API to match other sources in both
available functions, names of those functions and order of the
parameters to the _full function.

* Add 'invoke' style method, which can be used to call an interaction
from any thread. The interaction will be run in the appropriate
#GMainContext
* Sync methods can be called whether main loop is running or not.
* Derived classes can choose to implement only sync or async
interaction method, and the invoke method will fill in the blanks.
* Documentation for the above.
* Tests for the above.

g_desktop_app_info_set_as_default_for_type() and
g_desktop_app_info_set_as_last_used_for_type () require the
application's ID, but depending on how the GAppInfo was created,
we might not be have one, and would thus silently fail to set
the default application, or last used application.

The test was using a socket in a temporary directory, but not actually
creating that temporary directory. This worked fine on Linux since it
actually ended up using an abstract socket instead, but failed on
unixes without abstract sockets.

This makes the source efficient on Linux.
Tested on Fedora 15 x86_64 + updates, kernel-2.6.40-4.fc15.x86_64
Also tested fallback code for unsupported flag TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET
on kernel 2.6.38.

Several different codebases in GNOME want to implement wall clocks.
While we could pretty easily share a private library, it's not a
substantial amount of code, and GLib already has a lot of the
necessary system-specific detection and handling infrastructure.
Note this initial implementation just wakes up once a second in the
cancel_on_set case; we'll add the Linux-specific handling in a
subsequent commit.
