I think this might be caused by better error handling in gdk-pixbuf 2.38.2
(<https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gdk-pixbuf/commit/855ff36b933c078967ebbcf6d31799efccf9485d>),
which I uploaded to make gdk-pixbuf silence the GTimeVal deprecation
warnings in its own animation API, so that it wouldn't trigger -Werror
in other packages if they don't actively use the animation API.

These macros have been deprecated for 17 years (it's not often that I
get to say that!). I opened #941488, for which Iain did an NMU already.
