Automake maintainer mode isn't about whether you're a maintainer or not
(although its name would suggest that), it's about whether files that are
normally distributed in the tarball get regenerated. As such, it's
not really appropriate to use it to drive defaults for things like
assertions and extra test code.
The desired effect is that developers building from git normally get
tests and assertions, while distribution packagers don't.

When targeting Windows, linking against the static library requires
special effort to turn off DLL import/export processing. We normally
link some things against the dynamic library, but if we're not building
that, we'll have to link everything statically.

Architectural assumptions inside dbus-launch mean that it is unsuitable
for use in contexts where a particular process's lifetime defines the
session, unless there is an out-of-band mechanism (like the X server)
which can signal the end of the session.

The first thing we should talk about is how to get a D-Bus session in
your X session - that's the common case.
Secondarily, we can tell command-line addicts how to have a D-Bus session.
Do not recommend --exit-with-session here, since that polls (and reads
from) stdin, which is harmful to precisely those command-line users!
Until we have some better tool, the best we can do here is note that
the dbus-daemon is not automatically terminated.

This is more suitable for distributions' Xsession scripts: it verifies
that X is already available, and so never results in an attempt to poll
stdin.

dbus-launch --exit-with-session attempts to scope the session length
to various things:
- if DISPLAY points to an X server, exit when the X session ends
- if stdin is a terminal, exit when end-of-file is reached
- if both are true, exit when one of them happens, whichever is first
- if neither is true, fail
These are not particularly useful semantics: if the session is scoped to
the X session, then the terminal from which dbus-launch was launched
is irrelevant. This also causes practical problems when dbus-launch
consumes characters from the terminal from which it happens to have
been launched (some display managers, like slim and nodm, run users' X
sessions with stdin pointing to the terminal from which the init daemon
happens to have started the display manager during boot, usually tty1
on Linux).

$(INSTALL) and $(INSTALL_DATA) try to change ownerships to root:bin when
copying tests to builddir. Presumably this is a difference in behaviour
between GNU and BSD install(1): the one in GNU coreutils doesn't try-and-fail
to change ownership if you're not root.

When libdbus-1 moved to using monotonic time support for the
DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 authentication was broken, in particular
interoperability with non-libdbus-1 implementations such as GDBus.
The problem is that if monotonic clocks are available in the OS,
_dbus_get_current_time() will not return the number of seconds since
the Epoch so using it for DBUS_COOKIE_SHA1 will violate the D-Bus
specification. If both peers are using libdbus-1 it's not a problem
since both ends will use the wrong time and thus agree. However, if
the other end is another implementation and following the spec it will
not work.
First, we change _dbus_get_current_time() back so it always returns
time since the Epoch and we then rename it _dbus_get_real_time() to
make this clear. We then introduce _dbus_get_monotonic_time() and
carefully make all current users of _dbus_get_current_time() use it,
if applicable. During this audit, one of the callers,
_dbus_generate_uuid(), was currently using monotonic time but it was
decided to make it use real time instead.

The "unixexec:" transport will create a local AF_UNIX socket with
socketpair(), then fork and execute a binary on one side with STDIN and
STDOUT connected to it and then use the other side.
This is useful to implement D-Bus tunneling schemes, for example to get
a D-Bus connection to the system bus on a different host, similar how
udisks is already doing it. (udisks uses SSH TCP tunneling for this,
which is a bit ugly and less secure than this solution).
Suggested use is with connection strings like the following:
unixexec:path=ssh,argv1=foobar,argv2=system-bus-bridge
or:
unixexec:path=pkexec,argv1=system-bus-bridge
or even:
unixexec:path=sudo,argv1=system-bus-bridge
The first line would execute the binary 'system-bus-bridge' on host
'foobar' and then pass D-Bus traffic to it. This (hypothetical) bridge
binary would then forward the information to the local system bus.
The second and third line use this scheme locally to acquire a
privileged connection through pkexec resp. sudo: instead of connecting
directly to the bus, they use the same bridge binary which will forward
all information to the system bus.
The arguments of the protocol are 'path' for the first execlp()
argument, and argv0, argv1, and so on for the following arguments. argv0
can be left out in which case path will be used.
