The GValueArray type was added in a time, during the Jurassic era or so,
when GArray did not have a representable GType. The GValueArray API has
various issues as well:
- it doesn't match the other GLib array types;
- it is not reference counted;
- the structure is fully exposed on the stack, so it cannot be
extended to add reference counting;
- it cannot be forcibly resized.
The nice thing is that now we have a GArray type that can replace in
full GValueArray, so we can deprecate the latter, and reduce the
complexity in GLib, application code, and bindings.

Like GPtrArray has a "free function" that can be used to free memory
associated to each pointer in the array, GArray would benefit from
having a "clear function" that can be used to clear the content of
each element of the array when it's removed, or when the entire array
is freed.

Some platforms don't have the source-specific multicast sockopts, and
so would fail to compile. Fix that (and return an error if the caller
tries to use source-specific). Also clarify the docs a bit.

This lets you poke at resources in elf files and
standalone resource bundles. So far, only listing
and extracting resources is supported. The support
for elf files requires libelf.
In non-UTF-8 locales, the translations and nl_langinfo() return values
must be converted to UTF-8 before being returned to the caller.
Likewise, when making a recursive call to expand a format like '%x',
the format string must first be converted to UTF-8.

g_settings_create_action() will create a GAction for the named key,
allowing it to be added to the action group of the application (so that
the setting can be directly manipulated from menus, for example).

glib-compile-schemas used to generate these. They're harmless and they
mean that no schemas are installed in a particular directory, so just
ignore them.

g_bus_get_finish() and g_bus_get_sync() both document that the returned
object will usually have exit-on-close set to TRUE, but the property's
documentation specified that its default is FALSE. While that's
technically true from a GObject perspective, it's not accurate from the
API user's perspective.

break_lines uses LFs, not CRLFs like you might expect (since it's
designed for email-related use), but we can't change that now since
the caller has to allocate the output buffer and so the
number-of-bytes-output is part of the ABI. So, just document that.

Initial underscores are used in c identifier to make them private,
for instance in Gtk+. However, we don't want to have this in the
resource section name, that just looks ugly.
Apparently IPV6_JOIN_GROUP and IPV6_LEAVE_GROUP are more portable than
IPV6_ADD_MEMBERSHIP and IPV6_DROP_MEMBERSHIP. (Windows and Linux have
both, but OS X only has the latter.)
struct sin6_addr has two additional fields that struct sin_addr
doesn't. Add support for those to GInetSocketAddress, and make sure
they don't get lost when converting between glib and native types.
