It turns out that CommandLineToArgvW() (at least on XP) doesn't end the argv
pointer array with a NULL, but goes straight into argv[0] string data, as per
MSDN. So gspawn-win32-helper.c:protect_wargv() counts argc too high and
overflows.

Circa 8.38, upstream PCRE (intentionally?) changed behaviour with
respect to whether options set with expressions like "(?i)" at the
top-level were reported via the pcre_fullinfo() API as having been
requested during compilation.
GLib contained a test that verified that these options were indeed
reported as if they had been provided as flags on the API.
Remove that check, and document the no-longer-deterministic behaviour.

I realise this is a contradiction in terms, but it keeps code analysis
tools happy. As spotted by cppcheck, which could not attend GUADEC, but
sends everyone its best wishes anyway.
This should not change the behaviour of the test, unless the test's
behaviour is changed in future. As spotted by cppcheck, which has
impeccable taste and a flair for the unexpected.
At some point, upstream SystemTap changed from using a
STAP_HAS_SEMAPHORES preprocessor variable for this, to using
_SDT_HAS_SEMAPHORES instead. We need to update our build system to
disable that as well.
The original discussion about use of semaphores is here:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=606044
This was breaking the build with -flto enabled, either because -flto
doesn’t work with semaphores.

Ensure that all the old log handler documentation includes
cross-references to a new section about how to enable structured logging
(tl;dr: #define G_LOG_USE_STRUCTURED).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769785
Give some example log domains, and recommend that G_MESSAGES_DEBUG is
used universally as the way to enable debug output (rather than having a
separate environment variable per library).
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=682794
It’s effectively deprecated if G_LOG_USE_STRUCTURED is defined, or if
the structured logging API is used directly. See the documentation for
rationale.

g_log_writer_is_journald() works out whether the process’ stderr or
stdout are redirected to journald. While the default writer function
uses this in conjunction with g_log_writer_journald(), that does not
always have to be the case — other writer functions might want to always
write to the journal, and never write to stderr (for example).
Consequently, automatically open the journal socket in
writer_journald(), rather than is_journald().
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=769507
journald is a part of systemd which is Linux-only at this time, so only
compile the journald items on Linux only, and just return FALSE for
g_log_writer_is_journald() and G_LOG_WRITER_UNHANDLED for
g_log_writer_journald() on non-Linux.

Talk to the journal ourselves using sendmsg() instead of linking
against libsystemd for sd_journal_sendv(). At the same time, we
can also avoid excessive copying.
The motivation for dropping the dependency is that we can
then use structured logging e.g. in a flatpak sandbox where
libsystemd may not be present in the runtime.
The code here is inspired by similar code in libvirt.
Currently the docs for GChecksumType are simpy annotated
with 'Since 2.16' which is when GChecksumType was first
introduced. No mention is made of the fact that the
G_CHECKSUM_SHA512 constant was only added much later
in 2.36.
