RFC 2782 says that if there is no SRV record for
_SERVICE._PROTOCOL.DOMAIN, you should fall back to trying just DOMAIN,
with the default port for SERVICE. Do that.

Otherwise, attempting to create a GSocketConnection from the socket
will likely return the wrong type, since the protocol won't match any
of the registered subtypes.
Also add the start of a GSocket test program (from davidz).

The code section guarded with toggle_refs_mutex includes a call to
g_object_unref(), which may call toggle_refs_notify(). As the latter
tries to acquire the same mutex, glib locks up.

Makes explicit the fact that you are interacting with the individual
action rather than the group and removes potential namespace conflicts
with classes implementing the interface (like g_application_activate()
vs g_application_activate_action()).
Create the gobject property for it.
Tweak the logic of having a pending timeout at the time that the
application starts -- run the mainloop with a use count of zero if there
is a timeout active.
Make g_get_user_data_dir() return the CSIDL_LOCAL_APPDATA folder on
Windows, and not CSIDL_PERSONAL. On Windows 7, that corresponds to the
subfolders AppData\Local vs. Documents under the profile ("home")
folder. This matches what Qt does, for instance, and has been widely
requested.
Also make g_get_user_config_dir() return this and not the (roaming)
CSIDL_APPDATA folder. The reason for this change is that it would be
surprising and hard to justify if g_get_user_data_dir() returned the
local application data folder while g_get_user_config_dir() would
return the roaming one. Nothing in the function names or the XDG specs
suggests that any roaming vs. local dichotomy would be involved.
Document the new semantics and the fact that these two functions now
return the same directory on Windows.
Note that in reality, code that really truly wants to support Windows
as well as possible probably will not use these GLib functions anyway,
but Win32 APIs directly to be sure what it is doing...
Should hopefully satisfy complaints in bug #620710 and related bugs.
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.
One of the GVariant test cases allocates a pair of character arrays on
the stack and then passes them to functions that assume that they will
be aligned to a multiple of two.
This is not the case for some versions of GCC (4.0.3 on PowerPC).
