gtimer fails to cross build from source, because it uses a broken,
outdated, embedded copy of AM_PATH_GTK_2_0 in aclocal.m4. The actual bug
is already fixed, see #895002. gtimer just happens to ship a copy of the
bug. The Debian policy discourages embedded code copies. Please remove
your copy. Failing that, please update your copy and register it with
the security tracker. See https://wiki.debian.org/EmbeddedCodeCopies for
how to do that. This bug report comes without a patch, because the
actual issue is already fixed.
