GLib 2.5.1 released [unstable]

[Matthias Clasen <mclasen redhat com>]

This is the second development release loading up to GLib-2.6.
This release contains a number of bug and portability fixes.
                                                                                
Notes:
                                                                                
* This is unstable development release. While it has had
   fairly extensive testing, there are certainly plenty of
   bugs remaining to be found. This release should not be
   used in production.
                                                                                
* Installing this version will overwrite your existing
   copy of GLib-2.4. If you have problems, you'll need
   to reinstall GLib-2.4.5.
                                                                                
* GLib-2.6 will be source and binary compatible with
   the GLib-2.4.x series; however, the new API additions
   in GLib-2.5.1 are not yet finalized, so there may
   be incompatibities between this release and the final
   2.6 release.
                                                                                
* Remaining API issues for GLib-2.6 can be found with following
   bugzilla query:

About GLib
==========
                                                                                
GLib is the low-level core library that forms the basis for projects
such as GTK+ and GNOME. It provides data structure handling for C,
portability wrappers, and interfaces for such runtime functionality as
an event loop, threads, dynamic loading, and an object system.
