Overview of Changes from GLib 2.25.11 to GLib 2.25.12
=====================================================

+-------------------------------------------------------------------+
| WARNING: There have been many API changes in GDBus -- sending     |
| messages, subscribing to signals, closing connections and         |
| registering subtrees are affected.  The ABI for GSettingsBackend  |
| has also been changed.  For both reasons, a new dconf release is  |
| required (and will be along soon).                                |
+-------------------------------------------------------------------+

Build:
  - cleanup automake setup
  - rename configure.in to configure.ac
  - various docs fixups
  - move glibconfig.h to glib/
  - disable dtrace support on Mac OS (which has incompatible 'dtrace')

GSettings:
  - add support for vendor override files (to change the default values
    in a schema)
  - change GSettingsBackend vtable
  - add g_settings_reset()
  - support binding to G_TYPE_STRV properties

GDBus:
  - many bug fixes, including a serialisation fix
  - stop handling incoming connections as soon as stop() is called
  - proper support for file descriptor passing
  - new flags parameter for sending messages
  - new flags parameter for subscribing to signals
  - always reset the message serial when sending a message unless
    G_DBUS_SEND_MESSAGE_FLAGS_PRESERVE_SERIAL is given
  - constness fixes for introspection structures
  - clean ups to subtree registration API

Other:
  - fix divide by zero bug in g_malloc_n functions
  - GIO: don't blindly assume that SOCK_CLOEXEC is supported
  - make GObject property notify freezes threadsafe
  - GIO: clean up credentials passing
  - GApplication: make default-quit not apply if register=FALSE
  - GIO: add annotations for gobject-introspection
