Helper scripts in C can be problematic for cross compiling: the compiler
produces executables for the target platform, which the host is usually
unable to run.

The glib-compile-resources --generate-dependencies call was failing,
although not stopping the build.

We need to do this because constructors run before main() and
thus before any call to g_mem_set_vtable, making it impossible to
use that function if constructors call g_malloc.
We do this by making the constructors just register the static data
for lazy registration, doing the lazy registration when using
the global resource set.
With this we're not longer exporting the constructor headers, which means
we're not tying ourselves to a macro that might need special tweaking on
a compiler-by-compiler basis.
It's important to have strict rules for handling of whitespace in
translated strings in GSettings schema files so that the tools
extracting the messages will end up with the same messages as the
runtime calling gettext().
The rules are designed to be simple and unambiguous yet cover most
normal uses in a convenient way.
Those rules are as follows (with rationale):
- for <default> tags, the text content has its leading and trailing
whitespace stripped off, but internal whitespace is not modified in
any way.
This allows for slightly more flexible use of whitespace without
causing that whitespace to appear in the strings for translation.
- for <summary> and <description> tags, the content is split into
paragraphs. Paragraphs are separated by two or more sequential
newline characters. Each paragraph has its leading and trailing
whitespace removed and all other whitespace is normalised to a
single ascii space character. Finally, the paragraphs are rejoined,
inserting exactly two newlines between them.
This allows for longer explanations (particularly in the description
tag) using a natural format that, when normalised, will display
nicely in toolkits.
This patch implements the rules for <default> tags. The schema compiler
currently ignores <summary> and <description> tags.
First, correct a rather dubious case of accessing a GSettingsSchemaKey
after clearing it. This was technically okay because only the key name
was accessed (and it is not owned by the struct) but it looks very
wrong.
Second, have g_settings_backend_write() sink the passed in GVariant*.
Not all backends get this right, and I'm starting to like the pattern of
virtual function wrappers being responsible for sinking the parameters
that they are documented as consuming.
GValueArray was deprecated in bug 667228 and since we never change the
size of the array, it was kinda dumb to just GValueArray in the first
place.

This is needed for thread-safety ... yes, it would have been better to
make get_object() return a full reference and have something like a
peek_object() method return a borrowed reference for C convenience
(only a single vfunc would have been needed). But such an ABI break is
too late now...

It's hardly useful to bloat the resource data with blanks intended only
for human readability, so add a preprocessing option that uses xmllint --noblanks
to strip these.
Bug #667929.
Some platforms don't have the source-specific multicast sockopts, and
so would fail to compile. Fix that (and return an error if the caller
tries to use source-specific). Also clarify the docs a bit.

This lets you poke at resources in elf files and
standalone resource bundles. So far, only listing
and extracting resources is supported. The support
for elf files requires libelf.
g_settings_create_action() will create a GAction for the named key,
allowing it to be added to the action group of the application (so that
the setting can be directly manipulated from menus, for example).

glib-compile-schemas used to generate these. They're harmless and they
mean that no schemas are installed in a particular directory, so just
ignore them.

g_bus_get_finish() and g_bus_get_sync() both document that the returned
object will usually have exit-on-close set to TRUE, but the property's
documentation specified that its default is FALSE. While that's
technically true from a GObject perspective, it's not accurate from the
API user's perspective.
