gdb by default will only print strings up to 200 characters. After that
it abbreviates them. This affects the run-assert-msg-test.sh script if
the path to the glib installation is too long (in our case it was 133
characters, 132 would still have worked...)
By having gdb execute "set print elements 0" before printing the assert
string, the limit on maximum number of characters to print is set to
unlimited.

These don't really matter, since it's test code, but they do obscure
real leaks in the library.

Either g_type_register_static_simple (used by G_DEFINE_TYPE_EXTENDED)
and G_IMPLEMENT_INTERFACE use automatic variables for GTypeInfo and
GInterfaceInfo structs, while tutorials and source code often use
static variables. This commit consistently adopts the former method.

Any flags specified as well as "all" are subtracted from the result,
allowing the user to specify FOO_DEBUG="all,bar,baz" to mean "give me
debugging information for everything except bar and baz".

These were the last users of the dynamic allocation API.
Keep the uses in glib/tests/mutex.c since this is actually meant to test
the API (which has to continue working, even if it is deprecated).

All locks are now zero-initialised, so we can drop the G_*_INIT macros
for them.
Adjust various users around GLib accordingly and change the docs.

The documentation for G_TYPE_CHAR says:
"The type designated by G_TYPE_CHAR is unconditionally an 8-bit signed
integer."
However the return value for g_value_get_char() was just "char" which
in C has an unspecified signedness; on e.g. x86 it's signed (which
matches the GType), but on e.g. PowerPC or ARM, it's not.
We can't break the old API, so we need to suck it up and add new API.
Port most internal users, but keep some tests of the old API too.

Replace it with g_thread_create_with_stack_size() and a real function
implementation of g_thread_create().
Modify a testcase that was calling g_thread_create_full()
inappropriately (it was using the default values anyway).
G_THREADS_ENABLED still exists, but is always defined. It is still
possible to use libglib without threads, but gobject (and everything
above it) is now guaranteed to be using threads (as, in fact, it was
before, since it was accidentally impossible to compile with
--disable-threads).

At the same time, also add g_mkdtemp_full and g_dir_make_tmp
variants. The patch also unifies the unique-name-generating
code for all variants of mkstemp and mkdtemp and adds tests
for the new functions.

If we are going to fail an assert, wait for a bit longer before doing so
(up to 5 seconds, if needed).
This is a long-standing Debian patch to fix build failures on really
slow machines.
g_thread_init() causes a hash table to be allocated (in read_aliases).
Since hash tables are now a bit larger, we need to bump one of the
probe sizes to avoid our probe slice being used for the aliases
hash table.
Of course, a proper implementation of close() will just ignore an
invalid parameter silently, and set errno. But apparently the "debug"
version of the Microsoft C library generates some noise in this
case. So avoid that. Thanks to John Emmas for reporting.
These allow applications to give meaningful names to their sources.
Source names can then be used for debugging and profiling, for
example with systemtap or gdb.

For some reason, even though the tests are linked against libgobject.la
and libgobject.la mentions libglib.la as a dependency, the tests are
running against the system glib instead of the in-tree one.
Adding the libglib.la file as an explicit LDFLAG fixes it.
Re-using glibc's __abort_msg symbol causes linking problems, since the symbol
is declared private. Always use our own__glib_abort_msg symbol to store
assertion messages, to avoid compatibility and linking problems.
Also fix the test case to work with out of tree builds (such as "make
distcheck"), and re-enable it.

Crash interception/debugging systems like Apport or ABRT capture core dumps for
later crash analysis. However, if a program exits with an assertion failure,
the core dump is not useful since the assertion message is only printed to
stderr.
glibc recently got a patch which stores the message of assert() into the
__abort_msg global variable.
(http://sourceware.org/git/?p=glibc.git;a=commitdiff;h=48dcd0ba)
That works fine for programs which actually use the standard C assert() macro.
This patch adds the same functionality for glib's assertion tests. If we are
building against a glibc which already has __abort_msg (2.11 and later, or
backported above git commit), use that, otherwise put it into our own field
__glib_assert_msg.
Usage:
$ cat test.c
#include <glib.h>
int main() {
g_assert(1 < 0);
return 0;
}
$ ./test
**ERROR:test.c:5:main: assertion failed: (1 < 0)
Aborted (Core dumped)
$ gdb --batch --ex 'print (char*) __abort_msg' ./test core
[...]
$1 = 0x93bf028 "ERROR:test.c:5:main: assertion failed: (1 < 0)"
