Overview of Changes from GLib 2.23.1 to GLib 2.23.2
===================================================

* We are now using gcc builtins for atomic operations when available

* g_assert() grew the ability to store assertions in core dumps

* GIO supports lazy loading of GIO modules, and there is a new
  gio-querymodule utility that goes along with this.
  Packagers will need to adapt to this.

* Threading changes:
 - The requirements for g_thread_init() have been relaxed slightly,
   it can be called multiple times, and does not have to be the first
   call.
 - GObject now links to GThread and threads are enabled automatically
   when g_type_init() is called.
 - Thread-safety issues with boxed types in GObject have been fixed.

* GObject:
 - Another bunch of performance work has landed

* GVariant:
 - GVariantType has been merged, with the rest of the GVariant
   API to follow.

* Bugs fixed:
