Release notes 

 * The licence for Upstart has been updated to GNU GPL v3.

 * Overhaul of the automatically generated D-Bus bindings code,
   fixing many issues with memory leaks, inconsistent return values
   and loss of method returns after the method has taken place.

 * D-Bus 1.2.4 is now required, and must be patched to fix
   https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=22316

 * D-Bus Job objects now have "name", "description", "author"
   and "version" properties.

 * D-Bus Instance object now have "name", "goal" and "state"
   properties.

 * initctl now obtains the name properties for display instead of
   printing the mangled object path component. (Bug: #299290)

 * D-Bus configuration updated now that the daemon is fixed to be
   deny-by-default, and updated to avoid bare "send_interface"
   stanzas. (Bug: #323021)

 * Fixed assertion caused by the post-start or pre-stop scripts
          exiting after the main process of a respawning job had exited
          (Bug: #381048)

 * The /proc filesystem need not be mounted if the "oom_adj"
   configuration stanza is not used. (Bug: #259801)

 * Overly large values to configuration stanzas are now caught
   and rejected. (Bug: #340134)

 * The --enable-compiler-warnings configure option has been
   extended to add -Wextra, but turns off a few of the more extreme
   warnings

 * GNU C Library v2.4 (or backported inotify support) is required

 * pkg-config 0.22 is now required, it probably was anyway but we
   now explicitly check for it.

 * Dependency on Python for the D-Bus binding tool has been dropped
   and replaced with a dependency on expat 2.0.0
