I have checked our gdk-pixbuf2-modules-extra package. I think the BMP, ICO, PNM, and TGA loaders are now obsolete and can safely be disabled. The other loaders provided by this package are still needed, but they cover particularly obscure image formats, so I wonder whether we still need gdk-pixbuf2-modules-extra at all. I suspect this package exists mainly for the BMP, ICO, and possibly TGA loaders? So maybe the package is no longer needed?

Yaakov has reminded me that it's the XPM loader that is still needed by various Fedora applications. :( And that one is not supported by Glycin. Oh well.

Could glycin add XPM support? Or could the GdkPixbuf XPM loader be rewritten to use libXpm instead?
