* Use waitid() on pidfds rather than a global SIGCHLD handler (work by Philip
Withnall) (!2408)
+* Executables that are invoked when installing other software, typically
+ from packaging system triggers, can now be installed into
+ architecture-dependent locations. Unix OS distributors who install
+ GLib for more than one architecture in parallel (multiarch or multilib
+ installations) should consider building with -Dmultiarch=true, installing
+ the bin/glib-compile-schemas and bin/gio-querymodules symbolic links in
+ packages for the primary architecture, and omitting those symlinks from
+ packages for secondary architectures. (work by Simon McVittie) (!2818)

* Bugs fixed:
- #1434 Move tests/* into */tests/
- #2216 Chain signal handlers for SIGCHLD
