+Subject: [PATCH] Make connection-created and tunneling of SoupSession use a GObject
+
+The connection-created and tunneling signals added to SoupSession in commit
+6ff7ecdd were using SoupConnection, and this made SoupConnection
+semi-public (gir-repository failed to build because it didn't know about
+it, for example).
+
+Since SoupConnection is intended to be private, use a GObject for the
+signal parameter.
