There are also some issues with building various configurations with/without
tests enabled, with/without asserts, with/without checks.  For example, under
autoconf, in the default configuration _dbus_atomic_lock etc are not defined
but used.  In cmake configurations there are other issues.

I have not investigated in detail yet, but it is certainly something that
should be fixed before a release (that claims to work on Windows).  It's on my
agenda.
