As explained on IRC, bumping libglib2 to 2.36.1 breaks the build of
webkit. Besides that, I've built a number of packages that use
libglib2, and I've built gstreamer1 itself, and it was fine here.

So, the webkit problem needs to be fixed, either by adding a patch to
the current version of webkit, or by bumping webkit. In the end,
bumping webkit is certainly the nicest solution, but it may turn this
patch series into a much larger one.

Thanks,

Thomas
