Notes about GLib 2.24
=====================
+* It is now allowed to call g_thread_init(NULL) multiple times, and
+ to call glib functions before g_thread_init(NULL) is called
+ (although the later is mainly a change in docs as this worked before
+ too). See the GThread reference documentation for the details.
+
+* GObject now links to GThread and threads are enabled automatically
+ when g_type_init() is called.
+
* GObject no longer allows to call g_object_set() on construct-only properties
while an object is being initialized. If this behavior is needed, setting a
custom constructor that just chains up will re-enable this functionality.
