Another user pointed out the version change on perl-xml-simple yesterday, and 
that's fixed.

While I'm interested in understanding what it is about Freetype that's choking 
jhbuild, you should know that the current release of Pango, which will go into 
the modulesets when I update them this week, no longer requires Freetype. 
Behdad has gotten CoreText fully integrated so that it handles all of the 
shaping.

Skipping gobject-introspection works fine for Gtk2. Nothing much uses 
introspection with Gtk2. Gtk3 is another matter, but if you're dealing strictly 
with C, you might be able to get away with it there, too -- but Gtkmm3 needs to 
have Gtk3 introspected, doesn't it?
