>From my point of view having a dependancy on glib may cause much trouble
for specific build, windows one to be precise. glib introduce a few other
dependancies like libintl, libiconv and (not sure) libxml2, so even when
building in native environment you'll have to have a lot of prerequisite
to be able to build qemu.
