libglib-object-introspection-perl's autopkgtests fail when testing against
gobject-introspection 1.81.x in experimental:

> t/structs.t ................... 
> 1..6
> ok 1
> ok 2
> Cannot convert record value of unknown type GIMarshallingTestsPointerStruct (94216787708512) to SV at t/structs.t line 26.
> # Looks like your test exited with 255 just after 2.
> Dubious, test returned 255 (wstat 65280, 0xff00)
> Failed 4/6 subtests 

There's a similar test failure when libglib-object-introspection-perl is
rebuilt against gobject-introspection/experimental.

I'm reporting this as serious even though it doesn't directly
affect testing/unstable right now, because we should really upload
gobject-introspection 1.82.0 to unstable relatively soon as part of
GNOME 47.
