Missing dependencies in GLib build system

[Shane McIntosh <mcintosh cs queensu ca>]

Hi all,

I’m part of a research team that's working on a tool that scans build systems for missing dependencies. We 
ran a prototype of our tool on the GLib build system, and detected a few bugs:

https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=752239
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=752232
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=752227

We’ve attached patches that address the missing dependencies to those bug reports. We hope that the patches 
are useful. It would be great if a GLib maintainer could have a look, and get back to us! The feedback would 
be very helpful for when we scale the approach out to larger build systems — perhaps even scanning the whole 
of GTK+ or GNOME if there is interest.

All the best,
-Shane
