The g_thread_* API has been deprecated in 2.31.x, and g_thread_init() is not necessary any more since 2.24 (g_type_init() cares about this).

proposed patch

This patch works, but it bumps the glib requirement for the tests to
2.31.4 (g_thread_new() did not exist in 2.30.x). If that's not
appropriate, I could add some #if magic to emulate g_thread_new() with a
macro that calls  g_thread_create() if you are interested.

Bug description:
  g_thread_init() and friends have been deprecated since glib 2.24. This
  causes some packages to FTBFS when they fail to build on warnings.

  The fix is to replace g_thread_init() with g_type_init().
  Alternatively you can build without G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED, but of
  course it's better to fix it properly.
