Many (if not "almost all") programs that spawn other programs via
g_spawn_sync() or the like simply want to check whether or not the
child exited successfully, but doing so requires use of
platform-specific functionality and there's actually a fair amount of
boilerplate involved.
This new API will help drain a *lot* of mostly duplicated code in
GNOME, from gnome-session to gdm. And we can see that some bits even
inside GLib were doing it wrong; for example checking the exit status
on Unix, but ignoring it on Windows.

Call g_simple_async_result_set_check_cancellable() after all
GSimpleAsyncResult creation in order to take advantage of the new
reliable cancellation feature.
The guarantee of reliable cancellation fixes a bug in dbusmenu (which
was already assuming that cancellation was reliable). See this bug:

Until after we include the glib stuff, so that we have G_OS_UNIX
defined.
For some reason <stdlib.h> pulls in <sys/wait.h> on Fedora so this
wasn't a problem, but many others have reported the issue.
Also add a 'address' G_DBUS_DEBUG option that will print out useful
debug information such as

Note that things work exactly like libdbus, e.g. from the
dbus-launch(1) man page:
Whenever an autolaunch occurs, the application that had to start a
new bus will be in its own little world; it can effectively end up
starting a whole new session if it tries to use a lot of bus
services. This can be suboptimal or even totally broken, depending
on the app and what it tries to do.
[...]
You can always avoid autolaunch by manually setting
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS. Autolaunch happens because the default
address if none is set is "autolaunch:", so if any other address is
set there will be no autolaunch. You can however include autolaunch
in an explicit session bus address as a fallback, for example
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS="something:,autolaunch:" - in that case if
the first address doesn't work, processes will autolaunch. (The bus
address variable contains a comma-separated list of addresses to
try.)

- Fix various #include issues
- Change #error to #warning for the EXTERNAL authentication mechanism.
It is not clear if this should work on Win32 at all.
- Call close() before unlink() for the SHA1 keyring
- Change #error to #warning so we don't forget to do
permission checking of the .dbus-keyrings directory
- Use Win32 SID for the SHA1 auth mech
- Apparently we can't use word 'interface' as an identifier
- Implement a _g_dbus_win32_get_user_sid() function. For now it's
private. Don't know if it should be public somewhere. Maybe in
a future GCredentials support for Win32? I don't know.
- GFileDescriptorBased is not available on Win32. So avoid using
it in GLocalFile stuff. Now, Win32 still uses GLocalFile + friends
(which works with file descriptors) so expose a private function
to get the fd for an OutputStream so things still work.
- Fixup gio.symbols
- Fixup tests/gdbus-peer.c so it builds
With this, at least things compile and the gdbus-peer.exe test case
passes. Which is a great start. I've tested this by cross-compiling on
a x86_64 Fedora 13 host using mingw32 and running the code on a 32-bit
Windows 7 box.

Bug #618622.
Things compile and the test-suite passes. Still need to hook up
gio.symbols and docs. There are still a bunch of TODOs left in the
sources that needs to be addressed.
