GCC doesn't like this:

modules/module-zeroconf-discover.c: In function â??client_callbackâ??:
modules/module-zeroconf-discover.c:385:27: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
                 u->client = u->sink_browser = u->source_browser = NULL;
                           ^

It would be good to have a comment, something like this:

/* We don't set u->client here, the reason is explained in pa__init(). */
