Remaining glib bugs for 2.2.0



The following summarizes the remaining bugs on the GLib-2.0
milestone. Only 6 items that are not either ready to commit
or else punt candidates, so definitely very close here.

Key:

*: change ready to commit
+: bug I think should be fixed for 2.2.0
?: maybe fix, maybe punt  
-: good punt candidate

configure issues
================
+ 70627 general glib 2.2.0 AM_GLIB_GNU_GETTEXT / older libc problem
+ 85217 general glib 2.2.0 GNU gettext dependency
 I think I'm going to go ahead here and pull in -lintl if
 it has bind_textdomain_codeset() and libc doesn't; not worth
 continuing the debate.

+ 77565 general glib 2.2.0 patch for cross-compiling glib2
 Mostly done. The remaining things that need fixing are
 all in the thread configure parts.

+ 100697 general glib 2.2.0 Problems with -pthread and shared libraries
 libgthread isn't getting linked against -lpthread on Linux.
 May be best fixed distributing a libtool patch and calling the
 rest a GCC bug.

Misc stuff
==========
+ 79529 general glib 2.2.0 Calling glib functions prior to 
  setlocale() sticks g_get_charset()
 Unpleasant bug; I have some ideas about how it might be fixed.

+ 90549 general glib 2.2.0 gthread.h uses reserved symbol
 Not clear that there is a problem, but would take 30 seconds
 to eliminate the issue.

Outstanding patches just needing commiting
==========================================
* 99319 general glib 2.2.0 Use g_printf instead of system printf
* 99720 general glib 2.2.0 glib uses floating point for generating random integers and

Win32 Bugs
==========
? 57689 win32 glib 2.2.0 Unimplemented iochannel functions under win32
 Some of the stuff in here is easy to fix

- 57690 win32 glib 2.2.0 is_readable and is_writeable flags not set when creating ioc
 Not clear if anything is possible here. May be a WONTFIX

- 57691 win32 glib 2.2.0 check error conditions in backend read/write/seek
 About GError message strings for win32; possibly better punted
 to avoid translated string changes.

- 57692 win32 glib 2.2.0 g_io_channel_win32_no_seek() no longer needed
 Really trivial code cleanup

- 98737 win32 glib 2.2.0 g_spawn* Win32 implementation needs work
 About possible performance enhancements; probably best punted
 at this point.

Docs bugs
=========
- 64352 docs glib 2.2.0 glib api docs trivia
- 89533 docs glib 2.2.0 g_object_[sg]et not documented
- 93108 docs glib 2.2.0 Document - and _ equivalence for signals / properties.

 Enhancement stuff, definitely very puntable.
