OK, so it seems we no longer need to build gio. The attached diff
updates glib from 2.25.3 to 2.25.5 and removes the gio build commands.
I suspect that the glib-3-avoid-lc-messages.patch will also be
unnecessary if we're not building gio.

There's still the question of whether we want to use release or
development versions.
