Fixes:
+• Stop the dbus-daemon leaking memory (an error message) if delivering
+ the message that triggered auto-activation is forbidden. This is
+ technically a denial of service because the dbus-daemon will
+ run out of memory eventually, but it's a very slow and noisy one,
+ because all the rejected messages are also very likely to have
+ been logged to the system log, and its scope is typically limited by
+ the finite number of activatable services available.
+ (dbus#234, Simon McVittie)
+
• Remove __attribute__((__malloc__)) attribute on dbus_realloc(),
which does not meet the criteria for that attribute in gcc 4.7+,
potentially leading to miscompilation (fd.o #107741, Simon McVittie)
