        Changes for 64-bit cleanliness, loosely based on patch
	from Mark Murnane.

	* gconvert.c (g_convert/g_convert_with_fallback): Remove
	workarounds for since-fixed GNU libc bugs. Minor
	doc fix.

	* gconvert.[ch]: Change gint to gsize/gssize as
	appropriate.

	* gconvert.c (g_locale/filename_to/from_utf8): Fix incorrect
	computation of bytes_read / bytes_written.

	* gfileutils.[ch] (g_file_get_contents): Make length
	out parameter 'gsize *len'.

	* ghook.c (g_hook_compare_ids): Don't compare a
	and b as 'a - b'.

	* gmacros.h (GSIZE_TO_POINTER): Add GPOINTER_TO_SIZE,
	GSIZE_TO_POINTER.

	* gmain.c (g_timeout_prepare): Rewrite to avoid
	overflows. (Fixes bug when system clock skews
	backwards more than 24 days.)

	* gmarkup.[ch]: Make lengths passed to callbacks
	gsize, length for g_markup_parse-context_parse(),
	g_markup_escape_text() gssize.

	* gmessages.[ch] (g_printf_string_upper_bound): Change
	return value to gsize.

	* gmessages.c (printf_string_upper_bound): Remove
	a ridiculous use of 'inline' on a 300 line function.

	* gstring.[ch]: Represent size of string as a gsize,
	not gint. Make parameters to functions take gsize,
	or gssize where -1 is allowed.

	* gstring.c (g_string_erase): Make
	g_string_erase (string, pos, -1) a synonym for
	g_string_truncate for consistency with other G*
	APIs.

	* gstrfuncs.[ch]: Make all functions taking a string
	length, take a gsize, or gssize if -1 is allowed.
	(g_strstr_len, g_strrstr_len). Also fix some boundary
	conditions in g_str[r]str[_len].

	* gutf8.c tests/unicode-encoding.c: Make parameters that
	are byte lengths gsize, gssize as appropriate. Make
	character offsets, other counts, glong.

	* gasyncqueue.c gcompletion.c
          timeloop.c timeloop-basic.c gutils.c gspawn.c.
	Small 64 bit cleanliness fixups.

	* glist.c (g_list_sort2, g_list_sort_real): Fix functions
	that should have been static.

	* gdate.c (g_date_fill_parse_tokens): Fix extra
	declaration that was shadowing another.

	* tests/module-test.c: Include string.h

	* gutf8.c (g_get_charset): Make argument
	G_CONST_RETURN char **.

 *** IMPORTANT *** 

This is a development version of GLib.  You should be using a stable
version, which is available at ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk/v1.2/.  This
version is meant for developers of GLib only:

 * You should not base stable software on this version of GLib.
 * GNOME developers should use a stable version of GLib.

*** You should be using GLib 1.2 instead. ***


General Information
===================

This is GLib version 1.3.6. GLib is a library which includes support
routines for C such as lists, trees, hashes, memory allocation, and
many other things.

The official ftp site is:
  ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk

The official web site is:
  http://www.gtk.org/

Information about mailing lists can be found at
  http://www.gtk.org/mailinglists.html

To subscribe: mail -s subscribe gtk-list-request@gnome.org < /dev/null
(Send mail to gtk-list-request@gnome.org with the subject "subscribe")

Installation
============

See the file 'INSTALL'

How to report bugs
==================

Bugs should be reported to the GNOME bug tracking system. 
(http://bugzilla.gnome.org, product glib.) You will need
to create an account for yourself.

In the bug report please include:

* Information about your system. For instance:

   - What operating system and version
   - For Linux, what version of the C library

  And anything else you think is relevant.

* How to reproduce the bug. 

  If you can reproduce it with the testgtk program that is built 
  in the gtk/ subdirectory, that will be most convenient.  Otherwise, 
  please include a short test program that exhibits the behavior. 
  As a last resort, you can also provide a pointer to a larger piece 
  of software that can be downloaded.

* If the bug was a crash, the exact text that was printed out
  when the crash occured.

* Further information such as stack traces may be useful, but
  is not necessary.

Patches
=======

Patches should also be submitted to bugzilla.gnome.org. If the
patch fixes an existing bug, add the patch as an attachment
to that bug report.

Otherwise, enter a new bug report that describes the patch,
and attach the patch to that bug report.

Bug reports containing patches should include the PATCH keyword
in their keyword fields. If the patch adds to or changes the GLib 
programming interface, the API keyword should also be included.

Patches should be in unified diff form. (The -u option to GNU
diff.)
