Bug 237567: devel/glib20 - upgrade, improve
https://bugs.freebsd.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=3D237567



--- Description ---
I'm not sure, why our version of glib20 is still at 2.56 -- 2.61 is current=
ly
the latest available -- but there may be good reasons.

Still, within 2.56 we are on 2.56.3, whereas 2.56.4 is out since December 1=
8th
and promises the following improvements:

* Various buffer overflow fixes in GMarkup/GVariant/GDBus (#1582)

* Bug fixes:
 #1588 Moving a bookmark item to the same URI causes a crash
 #1582 Backport GMarkup/GVariant/GDBus fixes to glib-2-58 and glib-2-56

In addition to upgrading, I also set the TEST_TARGET (some tests fail) and
provide for the thread-naming functionality by teaching glib about BSD-spec=
ific
pthread_set_name_np and pthread_get_name_np calls.
