Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.8 to 2.35.9
==============================================
This release drops the old codepage ABI from gutils.c. This is a
source-compatible change and only breaks ABI with respect to truly
ancient binaries (and those binaries are already broken for other
reasons). This change only affects Windows.
* Bugs fixed:
682896 glib doesn't build on mingw32

Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.7 to 2.35.8
==============================================
This release contains one major change that may cause problems: type
modules are now never unloaded. This is implemented by (effectively)
leaking the last reference on dynamic types. Some testcases that check
for unloading of types have been observed to be broken by this change,
but we know of no actual cases of "real code" breaking. Please report
any problems.
Other changes:
* A couple of build fixes for Solaris
* Fix signal emission for GDBusObjectManagerClient
* annotations fixes
* new API: g_dbus_address_escape_value()
* GSocketClient: add proxy-resolver property
* GSimpleProxyResolver: new simple GProxyResolver class
* documentation fixes
* gnetworkaddress: preserve IPv6 scope ID in IP literals
Bugs fixed:
691105 Allow GSocketClient to override GProxyResolver for per client proxy settings.
692827 configure test fails for arpa_nameser.h
692829 new Btrfs support causes build failure on Solaris
693285 GDBusObjectManagerClient: won't emit object-added|removed if name-owner arrives later
693502 Cross-compiling documentation: typo (np -> no)
693673 add g_dbus_address_escape_value()
693694 gio: Fix annotations on g_[async_]initable_new() and friends

==============================================
This is a quick follow-up release with a few bug fixes.

to the LDFLAGS for a testcase.
* Re-enable native atomic operations on some buggy versions of clang
that ship as part of the MacOS X SDK.

Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.2 to 2.35.3
==============================================
* This release contains an incompatible change to the g_get_home_dir()
function. Previously, this function would effectively ignore the HOME
environment variable and always return the value from /etc/password.
As of this version, the HOME variable is used if it is set and the
value from /etc/passwd is only used as a fallback.
* We now install a public "gnetworking.h" header that can be used to
include the relevant OS-dependent networking headers. This does not
really abstract away unix-vs-windows however; error codes, in
particular, are incompatible.
* Bugs fixed in this release:
142568 Allow $HOME to override passwd entry if the user really wants
587806 The file selector should honor .hidden files

Overview of changes from GLib 2.35.1 to 2.35.2
==============================================
Note that the incompatible change to the ->constructed() vfunc that was
made in the last unstable release (2.35.1) has been reverted due to
causing regressions in applications.
A new incompatible change has been introduced in this version: it is no
longer permitted to add interfaces to a class after the first
instantiation (or more strictly: after g_type_class_ref()). Bug #687659
is tracking this.
Two private symbols (g_menu_{attribute,link}_hash_iter_get_type) which
were accidentally exported have also been properly hidden. This may
cause some tools to issue warnings about ABI mismatch.
The remaining changes should be relatively harmless:
* GIO now has kqueue support for GFileMonitor (BSDs, Mac OS)
* New g_variant_new_from_bytes() API
* UNIX signal sources now allow watching SIGUSR1 and SIGUSR2
* Many pedantic cleanups to adhere to a higher level of -W use
* GTask changes to avoid a deadlock
* many cleanups/fixes for Windows
* Boxing for GPollFD, GIOChannel, GBytes, GByteArray
* Fix URL-encoding of trashed files
* Many other docs and annotations fixes
