This function exposes more variables than g_mkstemp() and therefor
allows more flexibility when creating temporary files.
The intended use is gio's code for g_file_replace() (see next patch)
This means we don't sync in the case where we created an (empty)
temp file and now replace it with the data.
This fixes (among other things) the performance of trashing files.

Bug 575555 – Use fsync() when replacing files to avoid data loss on crash
* configure.in:
Look for fsync().
* glib/gfileutils.c:
(write_to_temp_file):
fsync temp file if destination file exists

Bug 566348 - g_file_open_tmp uses the wrong g_mkstemp on win32
* glib/gfileutils.c: Move the binary compatibility versions of
g_file_test(), g_file_get_contents(), g_mkstemp() and
g_file_open_tmp() last in the file. Remove the restriction that
the XXXXXX is last in the template in the binary compatibility
version of g_mkstemp(). Thanks to Morten Welinder and Jody
Goldberg.

* glib/gfileutils.c: change g_format_size_for_display API doc to
explicitly say that the returned string has to be freed. Change
spelling of "newly allocated" to "newly-allocated" in g_file_read_link
API doc to be more consistent with what is done in that file.

there is no need to have the "ABI compatibility" versions in the
DLL.

Remove support for Windows 9x/ME, as will be done also in Pango
and GTK+. GTK+ hasn't worked on Win9x since 2.6 or 2.8 anyway, so
it's pretty pointless to keep the Win9x code in here either. If
somebody is interested, the code can always be found in older GLib
versions, and in CVS.

G_WIN32_HAVE_WIDECHAR_API() tests and their false (Win9x)
branches, and any variables or static functions used only by the
Win9x branches.
* glib/gwin32.c (g_win32_windows_version_init): Call g_error() if
run on Win9x.

the alias declarations to a separate file which is
produced when calling makegalias.pl -def
* glib/Makefile.am (galiasdef.c): Add a rule to generate this
file.

include galiasdef.c at the bottom.
