realmd requires glib max 2.38  minimum

It turns out that when glib max version is 2.36 in configure.ac as realmd has, build complains but does not error out. But the binary ends up not allocating the parent_instance private structure. Valgrind complains so at least and switching from GLIB_MAX=GLIB_VERSION_2_36 to GLIB_MAX=GLIB_VERSION_2_38 in configture.ac makes it quiet and also phase out the various segfault and sigill I had (on x86 , x86_64 and armhf) .

Follows the relevant part of the build log, the first valgrind lines of output and an extract of the gdb session that shows the parent_instance GDBusInterfaceSkeleton GMutex internals field __kind with the same address as the object itself - RealmDbusServiceSkeleton -  context field. Then in realm_dbus_service_skeleton_init when context is assigned, the value of the parent_instance lock is corrupted (equals the address of the context instead of 3).

realm-dbus-generated.c:
I  added:
GDBusInterfaceSkeleton *interface = &skeleton->parent_instance;
in static void
realm_dbus_service_skeleton_init (RealmDbusServiceSkeleton *skeleton)
for ease of debugging. In this function context assignment overwrites the
parent_instance->priv->lock->p->__data->__kind (ie the pthread_mutex_t items that made up the GMutex.

(gdb) p &((pthread_mutex_t*)interface->priv->lock->p)->__data->__kind
$10 = (int *) 0x666800
(gdb) p skeleton->priv->context
$11 = (GMainContext *) 0x3
(gdb) p &skeleton->priv->context
$12 = (GMainContext **) 0x666800

Later on various issues appears : mostly sigill and segfaults.
