This suggests that gnome-builder should be calling 
gi_repository_prepend_search_path() to add that directory to the search 
path. It seems that it *does* call

   gi_repository_prepend_search_path (ide_get_gir_repository (),
                                      PACKAGE_LIBDIR"/gnome-builder/girepository-1.0");

in at least some code paths, but perhaps that isn't always reached, or 
perhaps it isn't happening early enough?
