2.51.1.1 (unstable):

General:
* Remove no_default_handler in some _WRAP_SIGNAL()s
  This allows application developers to simply override
  the default on_*() signal handlers for these signals too,
  as they can already with most other signals.
  If you are using, for instance, the -Wsuggest-override
  compiler option, watch out for new compiler warnings suggesting
  that your existing signal handler should now be marked with the
  override keyword - that means you should do so but you should
  also stop connecting the signal handler in your code.
  (Kjell Ahlstedt)
* Build: examples/Makefile.am: Re-insert the dispatcher examples
  (Kjell Ahlstedt)

Glib:
* Dispatcher: Don't cast a HANDLE to an int on Windows.
