Overview of changes in GLib 2.67.1
==================================
* Deprecate `g_time_zone_new()` in favour of `g_time_zone_new_identifier()`,
which makes error checking easier (#553)
* Remove `volatile` from various public APIs, including `G_DEFINE_*`. You should
adjust your code to not use `volatile` for atomic variables, `GOnce`
variables, or mostly anything else (see
http://isvolatileusefulwiththreads.in/c/). (#600)
* Support passing file handles to `gdbus` command line tool (work by
Norbert Pocs and Tim Waugh) (#961)
* Add `g_assert_cmpstrv()` test convenience function (work by Niels De Graef) (#2015)
* Changes to the behaviour of the `G_URI_FLAGS_SCHEME_NORMALIZE` scheme
normalization flag in `GUri` (work by Carlos Garcia Campos) (#2257, !1716)
* Add new `--run-prefix` and `--skip-prefix` options to GTest, to allow running
or skipping test suites by prefix (work by Frederic Martinsons) (!1738)
* Fix thread-safety of `GBinding`; see the updated documentation for
`g_object_bind_property()` for full details — if your code uses `GBinding`
across threads, you should re-check it against the latest documentation, use
`g_binding_unbind()` rather than implicitly dropping the binding with your
last `g_object_unref()` call, and use `g_binding_dup_source()`/`g_binding_dup_target()`
instead of `g_binding_get_source()`/`g_binding_get_target()`
(work by Sebastian Dröge) (!1745)
