password strings it creates before their deallocation;

and Is_Descendant functions;
   * Gtk.Tree_Model.Columned_Store also supports a mode without a reference
model;
   * The extension tree model Gtk.Tree_Model.Extension_Store supports
reference model change;
   * The procedure Get_Directory_Cache is added to
Gtk.Persistent_Storage_Browser;
   * Procedure Set is added to GLib.Object.Weak_References;
   * Bug fix in GLib.Object.Strong_References and Weak_References;
   * Get_Current_Object, Get_Current_Storage, Get_Path added to
