Hi All(an),

I've pushed a few new Proposed Upgrades (PU) to my GitLab clone[1].

 [1] https://gitlab.com/sane-project/backends/branches

I know that there are some restrictions on what can go in at this point
but I will leave that to the discretion of whomever merges them.  Apart
from the first PU, I am fine with everything getting bumped to the "one
after 1.0.25" release.

- pu/update-ukrainian-translation: patch recently posted to the list and
  should go in, really.

  I am not certain how and when the po/*.po get synced with the latest
  source code.  I also couldn't find anything in doc/releases.txt about
  it but it is nice for translators to have up-to-date comments linking
  to the exact line in the sources.  A `make -C po update` should do.

- pu/make-sequence-point-warnings-go-away: educated guesses at "fixing"
  these kind of issues.  I cannot test and have not tested whether this
  breaks anything.  Representative sample code matches the behaviour of
  gcc-4.9.2.

- pu/add-avahi-locking-313921-314696-315044: addresses multi-threading
  concerns raised in 313921 and possibly fixes the other two bugs.  If
  this can go in, the reporter of 314696 can test.

- pu/fix-snmp-configure: compiler and linker flags were passed on to
  every compilation/linking invocation.  That made *everything* depend
  on libsnmp (and may have caused issues with preprocessor options).
  I found this when chasing down why the compile command-line still
  mentioned -I/usr/local/include after 07d8b48 should have made that go
  away fixing 315060.  In my build setup, snmp-configure happily put it
  back in ...
  # This PU needs an autofoo sync.

Hope this helps,
