It's a recipe for race conditions and error; on some hardware
architectures one thread isn't guaranteed to see the results
of writes from another thread without a cache flush.

The test /gdbus/connection/large_message waits for a dbus name to appear.
The dbus name is created by a another process executed in the background.
If for some reason this fails, the test will likely wait forever.
This will avoid this situation by making the test fail if the dbus service
has not appeared after 10 seconds.

Back in the far-off twentieth century, it was normal on unix
workstations for U+0060 GRAVE ACCENT to be drawn as "‛" and for U+0027
APOSTROPHE to be drawn as "’". This led to the convention of using
them as poor-man's ‛smart quotes’ in ASCII-only text.
However, "'" is now universally drawn as a vertical line, and "`" at a
45-degree angle, making them an `odd couple' when used together.
Unfortunately, there are lots of very old strings in glib, and also
lots of new strings in which people have kept up the old tradition,
perhaps entirely unaware that it used to not look stupid.
Fix this by just using 'dumb quotes' everywhere.

It tries to run glib-compile-schemas and glib-mkenums, which
we won't have in the runtime tree.
Anyways it's kind of a dumb test since the best test for
compilation tools is...compiling things, which we already
do frequently.
Although none of the in-tree GSocketConnectable types need it, other
types (like SoupAddress) may find it useful to be able to pass a URI
and a default-port to GProxyAddressEnumerator separately (the same way
you can with GNetworkAddress). So add a default-port property.

Not all systems have /usr/bin/true. Some have it in /bin/true.
Instead of trying to guess a hardcoded path to find it, let
g_app_info_create_from_commandline() internally search PATH
to find the program.

Add support for serialising a GIcon to a GVariant and deserialising the
result back to a GIcon.
This solves a number of problems suffered by the existing to_string()
API, primarily these:
- not forcing the icon to be a utf8 string means that we can
efficiently encode a PNG (ie: just give the array of bytes)
- there is no need to ensure that proper types are loaded before using
the deserialisation interface. 'Foreign' icon types will probably
emit a serialised format the deserialises to a GBytesIcon.
We additionally clearly document what is required for being a consumer
or implementation of #GIcon.
Further patches will be required to GdkPixbuf and GVfsIcon to bring
their implementations in line with the new rules (essentially: introduce
implementations of the new serialize() API).

Expand and formalise the syntax for detailed action names, adding a
well-documented (and tested) public parser API for them.
Port the only GLib-based user of detailed action names to the new API:
g_menu_item_set_detailed_action(). The users in Gtk+ will also be
ported soon.

We need to close the stream *before* applying the file modes, because
g_file_replace() allocates a temporary file. At the moment we're
applying the modes to the extant file, then immediately rename()ing
over it with the default perms.
This regressed with commit 166766a89f.
The real fix here is to have g_file_create_with_info() so that we can
atomically create a file with the permissions we want.

Commit f641699 (for bug 675333) introduced a check whether the Exec= program in
a .desktop actually exists. This broke the /appinfo/mime/* test cases which use
executable names like "my_app".
Use real ones instead (like "echo" and "sleep"), and add a new
/appinfo/mime/ignore-nonexisting test case which verifies that
g_desktop_app_info_new() indeed ignores nonexisting executables.

Some (broken) toolchains for example trip up

If a GNetworkAddress is created with a hostname like "fe80::xxx%em1",

Add GSimpleProxyResolver, for letting people do static proxy
resolution, and to use as a base class for other resolvers (such as
GProxyResolverGnome).

Add a proxy-resolver property to GSocketClient, to allow overriding

proxy rather than using the system defaults.

This is a GLib reimplementation of dbus_address_escape_value().
It's useful if you want to construct a D-Bus address from pieces:
for instance, if you have a listening Unix socket whose path is known,
and you want to connect a D-Bus peer to it.

While compiling, libtool will say that undefined symbols are not allowed, and
will refuse to make you a dll. This is only one line, easy to miss. And it
doesn't prevent `make' from completing successfully.
The code this patch adds is from other Makefile.am files that use
$(no_undefined). It's absence in gio is, most likely, an oversight.
Fixes#692058
The flowinfo and scope_id fields of struct sockaddr_in6 are in host
byte order, but the code previously assumed they were in network byte
order. Fix that.
This is an ABI-breaking change (since before you would have had to use
g_ntohl() and g_htonl() with them to get the correct values, and now
that would give the wrong values), but the previous behavior was
clearly wrong, and no one ever reported it, so it is likely that no
one was actually using it.

Add read_async() and skip_async() tests to buffered-input-stream.
Fix and re-enable filter-streams's existing close_async() tests, and
add read_async(), skip_async(), and write_async() tests as well. Also,
redo the tests to use dummy GFilterInputStream and GFilterOutputStream
subclasses rather than GBufferedInput/OutputStream, so that we're
testing the base filter stream implementations of everything (since
the buffered stream overrides are already getting tested in the
buffered-input-stream and buffered-output-stream tests anyway).
Add a skip_async() test to unix-streams. (This one would crash without
the bugfix in the previous commit.)
We only want to control the default visibility for our five main
installable libraries: libglib, libgthread, libgmodule, libgobject,
libgio. We should therefore only set -fvisibility=hidden when building
those.
Use a separate substitution variable for this purpose.
Using CFLAGS directly leads to some modules built in testcases not
exporting their symbols (and then the tests fail). It also affects the
fam file monitoring module.
Colin had originally done it this way in his visibility patch series but
I failed to understand why so I didn't copy it. Now I do.
Also: revert changes made to two testcases in an attempt to work around
this issue.

One of our testcases builds a small giomodule for testing the loading of
modules containing resources. Unfortunately, this module gets built
using the same CFLAGS as the rest of GLib, including the visibility
flags (defaulting to hidden).
Use "config.h" to get a declaration of _GLIB_EXTERN that will export
symbols properly and use it to annotate the necessary APIs.
Some OS (e.g. OpenBSD) do not implement IP v4-mapped addresses. When
this is the case, then we get a "Connection refused", so force the test
to pass to that further tests can run.

a5876e5f made GMemoryInputStream subclassable, but accidentally broke
read_async() and skip_async() in the process. The immediately
following e7983495 fixed read_async() (and added a test for it), but
skip_async() accidentally got... skipped.
Fix it now and add a test for it.
Also, GMemoryInputStream's skip_async() was assuming that skip() could
never fail, which is true of its own implementation, but might not be
true of a subclass's, so do proper GError handling too.
