* Made the thread related code follow GNU coding standard.
* Made a comment (HOLDS:) above each function, that expects the
given locks to be held.
* Changed try_lock to trylock throughout.
* glib.c: Eventually removed the #if 0'ed code for old GStaticMutex.
* glib.c: Corrected g_trylock macro for G_DEBUG_LOCKS.
* gmain.c (g_main_poll_add_unlocked): first take a new poll record
form the poll_free_list.
* gmem.c, gstrfuncs.c, gutils.c: Made it MT safe.
* gthraed/*.c: Added copyright headers.
* gthread/gthread-solaris.c: do not use g_log for errors, as g_log
uses these module and endless recursions might happen, just use a
plain fprintf(stderr,...).
* gthread/gthread.c (g_thread_try_init): Call g_mutex_init().
* gthread/testgthread.c: updated test program.

* 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: removed the GListAllocator type and its g_*_allocator_*()
function variants (which weren't working anyways) in favour of a
generic GAllocator type. new functions:
g_allocator_new, g_allocator_free, g_slist_push_allocator,
g_slist_pop_allocator, g_list_push_allocator, g_list_pop_allocator,
g_node_push_allocator and g_node_pop_allocator.
* gstring.c: removed bogus slist allocator code.
* gtree.c: maintain own list of free tree nodes and don't waste
GSLists for that, removed bogus slist allocator code.
* glist.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
* gslist.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
* gnode.c: use GAllocators for node allocation.
* gdataset.c: cleanups wrt automatic initialization.

* glib.h:
* gslist.c: new function g_slist_copy() to duplicate a list with all its
data pointers.
* glist.c: new function g_list_copy.
Fri Nov 13 15:17:34 1998 Owen Taylor <otaylor@redhat.com>
* glist.c gslist.c glib.h: Added g_list_sort() and
g_slist_sort() to merge sort GLists and GSLists.
Submitted by Sven Over <sven.over@ob.kamp.net>
over a year ago!
* testglib.c: Test the new sort functions.
