Hopefully this will give us the necessary information to find out why
this test isn't reliable.

These intermittently fail on the buildds, but the failure cannot be
reproduced in a debugging environment.
We do not expect to use D-Bus over TCP on non-Windows platforms: we use
an AF_UNIX socket, which is much more robust and secure. However, when
using AF_UNIX, DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 is unnecessary, because we can use the
more reliable EXTERNAL authentication.

DEB_ALLOW_FLAKY_TESTS is not quite right here, because we don't know
that the test would fail if left for long enough - the problem is that
it doesn't get there, because generating random floating-point numbers
is very slow on some of our mips hardware. However, it has the right
practical effect.

test_threaded_singleton() test to reproduce a race condition between
last-unref of the global singleton GDBusConnection and g_bus_get_sync().
test_method_calls_in_thread() checks that multiple threads can all make
method calls to the same proxy.
However, test setup intermittently times out with:
# GLib-GIO-DEBUG: run 0: refcount is 2, sleeping
Bail out! GLib-GIO-FATAL-ERROR: connection had too many refs
The current theory upstream is that this might be a reference leak in
test_delivery_in_thread().
Furthermore, test teardown is now often failing when destroying the test
bus.
Demote these tests to be run as part of the "flaky" autopkgtests, but
not at build time or in the part of the autopkgtest run that gates
progress into testing.

Choosing the right number of iterations to avoid either taking literally
hours on some hardware, or getting spurious failures when one thread
starves another, seems to be too hard to get right in practice.
Make this test opt-in so that its failures aren't release-critical.
We can run it as a separate autopkgtest that is marked flaky.

Disable a warning when compiling schemas which are installed
into 'deprecated' locations. Users see this very often due to
glib-compile-schemas being called from libglib2.0-0's trigger and it is
not very useful for them.

Ubuntu-specific. 01_gettext-desktopfiles.patch was changed to use
X-GNOME-, so this is necessary until all our .desktop files are converted.

This is a workaround for test failures on the reproducible-builds
infrastructure, where a multi-threaded stress-test sometimes takes longer
to finish on x86_64 than it would have done on slow architectures like
arm and mips on the official Debian autobuilders. It is not clear why.
This change will make this test more likely to pass, but less likely to
detect bugs.

GCC seems to be failing to follow the letter of the C spec by allowing extra
precision in floating point values to persist across assignments which are
optimised away.
Force its hand by using 'volatile' on the locals in question.

Patch from OpenSUSE via Ubuntu, original author unknown. Martin Pitt and
Vincent Untz appear to be the main authors.
Reworked slightly by Philip Withnall to avoid exposing new public API
for the non-standard keys.

Applied-upstream: no, rejected because "this will be solved soon" (in 2013)
Otherwise the test will fail when run in a non-English locale.
