* Start at adding thread-safety. (mostly work
of Sebastian Wilhelmi <wilhelmi@ira.uka.de>)
- configure.in now looks for a system thread implementation.
Currently support is included for POSIX threads
and Solaris threads. The default support is built
into a separate library -lgthread.
- The thread implementation can be modified by passing
a vector of functions g_thread_init().
- The default or supplied functions are used to
implement a small set of thread functions for
mutexes, condition variables, and thread-private
data.
- GLib now uses these functions to provide thread
safety. (In the sense that all global static
data is locked... individual structures must still
be locked by the caller.)

* glib.h:
* gmessages.c: new function g_log_set_always_fatal() to set an
additional fatal_mask for log levels that are considered to be fatal
globally (required by gtk). since this mask is not domain-associated,
it is restricted to the log levels, introduced by glib itself.
* gmem.c:
* grel.c:
* gtree.c (g_tree_node_check):
don't use g_print() calls for informational/debugging output,
but log all this stuff through g_log() with G_LOG_LEVEL_INFO.
libraries shouldn't use printf(), g_print() or g_printerr() at all.

* glib.h: add new hash and equal functions g_int_*. complement
g_direct_hash with g_direct_equal.
* grel.c: new file, GRelations implement tuples of N-N mappings.
A comment in glib.h briefly describes the interface.
* ghash.c: new function, g_hash_table_size
* glib.h: new typedefs, gsize, gssize, gtime.
* garray.c: new functions implementing a simplified GArray. This
GPtrArray is an array of gpointers and has functions to add and
remove elements, much like java.lang.Vector.
* garray.c: new functions for the single-byte special case of
GArray. The functions g_byte_array* operate on arrays of bytes.
Internally, a GArray is used.
* testglib.c: tests for g_ptr_array, g_byte_array, and g_relation...
