This patch breaks some rarely-used public API (only known user is
dconf).
This patch is based on work from Peng Huang <shawn.p.huang@gmail.com>.

This is a minimal patch-out of the galias functionality. We will do a
release like this so that we can easily back it out if there are
reported problems.
A more substantial cleanup (mostly removing #includes from every file)
will follow if there are no issues.
Having this tool in GLib is a bad idea for a number of reasons:
- experience has shown that the simple file format was a bad idea
- the tool is currently implemented with a hack that would require a
dependency inversion to solve (the tool needs to depend on Python
GVariant bindings)
- the tool itself is unmaintained
It will be moved to the GConf git repository so people can continue to
use it for the purpose of converting GConf schemas.
* glib/gtestutils.c: don't treat non-fatal messages as errors
* glib/tests/.gitignore: silence
* glib/tests/Makefile.am: updated
* glib/tests/protocol.c: add a test for the message treatment
When no path is provided for the schema, we have call
g_settings_new() instead of g_settings_new_with_path()
passing a NULL path.
This was crashing the tool on start since an assertion was
recently added to g_settings_new_with_path() to refuse NULL.
We can't search for a larger needle inside of a smaller haystack, and
unsigned integer subtraction tends to result in very large numbers
rather than small ones.
Add a check for this case and abort out immediately.
Also add a test case (lifted directly from the docs) that demonstrates
the problem.
