The explanation of this bug has been mentioned in !1823, basically
it fixes some possible integer overflow when message buffer size
is more than G_MAXSSIZE.
This change was previously implemented in
9ba17d511e but got dropped during the
Python conversion of the Perl script.
See the commit message of this commit as well as
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782162
for more information.
This patch also adds a new test so we don't loose this feature again.
Split out XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP handling to a separate function and make
sure that it drops all the invalid entries properly. Earlier a bad
entry could slip through the checks by sitting just after another bad
entry, like in env being set to `invalid1!:invalid2!`, where
`invalid2!` could slip the checks.
It occasionally fails in CI with output like:
```

```
which is not very helpful. Add some more debug output to print the
stdout and stderr of the child process, to hopefully give an insight
into why it’s dying with signal 11 (sigsegv).
I can’t reproduce the sigsegv locally.

On FreeBSD it always crashes due to the platform’s `vasprintf()`
implementation being less forgiving than Linux’s. That’s fine.

As with previous commits, this could have been used to load private data
for an unprivileged caller.

It could have been used to load private data which would not normally be
accessible to an unprivileged caller.

Its components are used to build filenames, so if the value of
`XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP` comes from an untrusted caller (as can happen in
setuid programs), using it unvalidated may be unsafe.

As with the previous commit, it’s unsafe to trust the environment when
running as setuid, as it comes from an untrusted caller. In particular,
with D-Bus, the caller could set up a fake ‘system’ bus which fed
incorrect data to this process.

Helps: #2168
Even if the modules in the given directory never get chosen to be used,
loading arbitrary code from a user-provided directory is not safe when
running as setuid, as the process’ environment comes from an untrusted
source.
Also ignore `GIO_EXTRA_MODULES`.

Fixes: #2168
This is mostly to cover historic code, but also includes a couple of
additional tests for extended error domains (see #14).

At this point, if `dest` is non-`NULL` then we can guarantee
`*dest != NULL` due to `g_propagate_error()` succeeding.

So just do that.
