Annoyingly, the POSIX way to declare environ (as
"extern char **environ") is a redundant declaration in glibc with
_GNU_SOURCE; work around that.
We also have a workaround for _NSGetEnviron() needing to be used
instead of direct access to environ in at least some circumstances on
Mac OS. Attempt to sync that up between all the files that use environ,
consistently sorting the most special special-cases first (Windows
for files that are compiled there, then Mac, then GNU, with
lowest-common-denominator POSIX last).
The affected files are already OS-specific, so I'm not bothering to
introduce a nicer or higher-level API for this.
Based on the best bits of an earlier patch from me, and an earlier
patch from Thomas Zimmermann.

If dbus-daemon or systemd replied to our method call with an error,
we would report it as "invalid arguments" instead of the true error
name and message.
Same root cause as <https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=96653>.

unistd.h and sleep() are normally Unix-specific, although mingw also provides them.
The Windows C runtime documents _environ as its equivalent of Unix environ.

If OS builders (distributions) have chosen to use the per-user bus,
this provides two possible modes of operation for compatibility with
existing X session startup hooks.
A legacy-free system can just upload DISPLAY, XAUTHORITY and possibly
DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS into dbus-daemon's and systemd's activation
environments, similar to
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/systemd/systemd/tree/xorg/50-systemd-user.sh
installed by systemd (but unlike systemctl,
dbus-update-activation-environment works for traditional
D-Bus-activated services, not just for systemd services).
A system where compatibility is required for environment variables
exported by snippets in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d (in Red Hat derivatives,
Gentoo, etc.) or /etc/X11/Xsession.d (Debian derivatives) can upload
the entire environment of the X session, minus some selected environment
variables which are specific to a login session (notably XDG_SESSION_ID).
In Debian, I plan to put the former in a new dbus-user-session package
that enables a user-session-centric mode of operation for D-Bus,
and the latter in the existing dbus-x11 package, with the intention that
dbus-x11 eventually becomes a tool for change-averse setups or goes
away entirely.
