Update Information:

Adds a patch for upstream bug report:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=696757

There is claimed that a change in 3.6.4 causes grow of used memory indefinitely for EBook/CalClient operations in GLib's quark chunk due to used dynamic keys in g_object_set_data(), which uses quarks internally.

In other words, the patch makes sure that the memory requirement doesn't grow indefinitely.
