  commit 65491a2dfe00bfcf9f09a8d6eab60234b56c8cc4
  Author: Martin Kletzander <mkletzan at redhat.com>
  Date:   Thu Nov 12 13:58:53 2020 +0100

    Do not disable incompatible-pointer-types-discards-qualifiers

We selectively rewrite G_DEFINE_TYPE to avoid warnings about
mismatched volatile/non-volatile pointers that appeared with
CLang when using GLib2 >= 2.67

We have now just hit the reverse problem, GCC >= 11 has started
warning about mismatched volatile/non-volatile pointers but only
with GLib2 < 2.67. The new GLib2 avoids the warning, as does
older GCC.
