GTimeVal is subject to the year 2038 problem, since its `tv_sec` field
is a `glong`, which is 32 bits on 32-bit platforms.
Use `guint64` to represent microsecond-precision time since the Unix
epoch; or use `GDateTime` for full date/time representation.

It’s not Y2038-safe, as it’s 32-bit. While it was previously deprecated
in the documentation, now add the deprecation annotation for the
compiler.

This is a simple wrapper around g_date_time_format_iso8601() which
always produces ISO 8601 dates, without people having to remember the
format string for them (and with the convenience of terminating UTC
dates with ‘Z’ rather than ‘+00’).

The event source used to handle inactivity_timeout doesn't hold a
reference on the application. Therefore, it is possible for callback
function of the event source to run after the application has been
freed, leading to use-after-free problem. To avoid the problem, we
should remove the event source before the application is freed.
This should fix SIGBUS crash of gio/tests/gapplication on FreeBSD.

compiling code is OK with depending on GLib functionality from ≥2.56.

Try to create the complete path right away and fall back
to creating all path elements one by one.
This also helps to avoid TOCTTOU problems and avoids walking
the path all the time, providing a nice performance gain, by
avoiding syscalls.
Ignore ENOENT errors up until the last element while trying to create each
of the path elements in case a restricted file-system is being used where
path elements can be hidden or non-accessible.
__atomic_load_8 and friends do not exist under clang. Use the generic
__atomic_load variant instead that are documented here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/_005f_005fatomic-Builtins.html
These have the additional benefit that the exact size of gint (4 bytes)
or gpointer (4 or 8 bytes) no longer have to be checked.
I initially tried `__typeof__(*(atomic)) val;`, but that caused warnings
in Clang (-Wincompatible-pointer-types-discards-qualifiers) when
"atomic" points to a volatile variable. Aside from that, it is
apparently not supported everywhere, see the g_has_typeof macro.
Another reason not to use it are new warnings under Clang, including:
glib/deprecated/gthread-deprecated.c:683:11: warning: incompatible pointer types initializing 'typeof (*(&mutex->mutex.mutex))' (aka 'union _GMutex *') with an expression of type 'GRecMutex *' (aka 'struct _GRecMutex *') [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
g_atomic_pointer_set (&mutex->mutex.mutex, result);
Hence, cast the atomic variable to gint/gpointer pointers, the size was
already statically asserted so the cast should be safe.
The macros use a (hopefully) rare "gaps_temp" name instead of something
like "val" to avoid an issue with GCC builds:
glib/tests/once.c:123:test_once4: assertion failed (val == "foo"): (NULL == "foo")
Closes#1843
These are here to prevent linker errors, since `gcontenttype.[ch]`
aren’t compiled on Windows or macOS.
The implementations are stubs to be filled out by someone who knows each
platform, at some point in the future.

Fixes: #1791
We cannot bump to the latest stable version of Meson, even if it would
make our life easier. We can, though, use the version of Meson shipped
by the next, soon to be released Debian stable.
We're using the `install` argument for configure_file() all over the
place.
The support for an `install` argument for configure_file() was added in
Meson 0.50, but we haven't bumped the minimum version of Meson we
require, yet; which means we're getting compatibility warnings when
using recent versions of Meson, and undefined behaviour when using older
versions.
The configure_file() object defaults to `install: false`, unless an
install directory is used. This means that all instances of an `install`
argument with an explicit `true` or `false` value can be removed,
whereas all instances of `install` with a value determined from a
configuration option must be turned into an explicit conditional.
