This reverts commit 280c8d41fb.
It breaks the unit tests on macOS (see #3314) and no fix has been
forthcoming.
The alternate stack changes can be resubmitted once they include a
working unit test on macOS, as evidently its treatment of alternate
stacks differs from that on Linux, and hence needs testing.
Helps: #3314
Just like we already do in `GSocket`.
This is necessary when using `g_subprocess_communicate()` with a
subprocess which calls `close()` on its stdin FD at some point. `cat`
does this just before exiting, for example.
This causes a `write()` to the stdin pipe in the parent process to fail
with `EPIPE` and `SIGPIPE`. The condition is not detectable in advance,
because the `close()` call could happen after the `GMainContext` has
dispatched a `g_subprocess_communicate()` callback.
If it weren’t for the `SIGPIPE`,`g_subprocess_communicate()` would be
able to handle the `EPIPE` just fine. `SIGPIPE` seems like a default
error handling path which was useful in 1980 for writing pipe-heavy
command line apps, but which is more of a broken stair for writing
larger modern apps which have more than one data flow path.

Fixes: #3310
With the shell in nounset mode, an error is emitted on referencing
`schemadir` as it is not initialized in all code paths.
Initialize to an empty string to fix.

The source language of GLib is technically en-US, so we should
consistently use en-US spellings.

Some applications, toolkits or languages may define an alternative stack
to use for traces. This is for example the case of go.
So, in case an application defines an alternate signal stack, GLib should
use that instead of the default one to receive signals otherwise it may
break the application expectations and write where it's not allowed to.
The python interpreter found by `/usr/bin/env python3` is not
necessarily the same installation as the one that's found by meson's
`pymod.find_installation('python')`. This means that even though meson
is checking that the python installation it found includes the
'packaging' module, the scripts might not have access to that module
when run.
For distribution packaging, it's usually desirable to have python script
interpreters be fully specified paths, rather than use `/usr/bin/env`,
to ensure the scripts run using the expected python installation (i.e.
the one where the python 'packaging' dependency is installed).
The easiest way to fix this is to set the script interpreter to the
`full_path()` of the python interpreter found by meson. The specific
python interpreter that will be used can be selected through the use of
a meson machine file by overriding the "python" program. Many
distributions already have this set up using meson packaging helpers.
This fixes an issue with the number getting very big due to
CPU_ISSET not returning exactly 0 or 1.
This also fixes scenarios where there are holes in the CPU
set. E.g. for a simple run like `taskset --cpu-list 1,2,4 ...`
the old code would return 2 instead of 3, due to iterating
until `ncores` (which is 3) and therefore not accounting for
CPUs further in the set.
