Description Giovanni Campagna 2012-11-18 18:05:36 UTC 
Recent GObject introduced an incompatible change, by setting non construct properties before ->constructed is called.
This caused regressions and misbehavior in applications. Examples include bug 688595 (rhythmbox) and bug 688594 (gnome-documents).
Comment 1 Allison Karlitskaya (desrt) 2012-11-19 15:33:05 UTC 
I can't credibly argue against this.

I've pushed the revert and I'll do a release today.
