This isn't only about obsolete versions of glib since there is no
version having a GIO
supporting all the features GeglBuffer would want it to, see bug
#533547. Thus unless
this gets resolved in glib we might have to fall back to regular posix
calls anyways.

Could be reimplemented using polling, or perhaps even better using
mmap for at least the buffer header.

These are internal for now so it isn't an issue.

Commit this change at will to GEGL when you think it has recevied enough polish.
