Bug Description

[ Impact ]

Building mutter triggers various non-fatal syntax errors:

/usr/include/glib-2.0/gobject/gobject.h:767: syntax error, unexpected '/' in ' do { if ((((g_type_check_instance_is_fundamentally_a ((GTypeInstance*) ((weak_pointer)), (((GType) ((20) << (2))))))))) ; else g_assertion_message (/"CoglPango/", "/usr/include/glib-2.0/gobject/gobject.h", 767, ((const char*) (__func__)), "'" "G_IS_OBJECT (weak_pointer)" "' should be TRUE"); } while (0);' at '/'
/usr/include/glib-2.0/gobject/gobject.h:767: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting identifier or '(' in ' do { if ((((g_type_check_instance_is_fundamentally_a ((GTypeInstance*) ((weak_pointer)), (((GType) ((20) << (2))))))))) ; else g_assertion_message (/"CoglPango/", "/usr/include/glib-2.0/gobject/gobject.h", 767, ((const char*) (__func__)), "'" "G_IS_OBJECT (weak_pointer)" "' should be TRUE"); } while (0);' at ')'
/usr/include/glib-2.0/gobject/gobject.h:770: syntax error, unexpected ')', expecting identifier or '(' in '# 770 "/usr/include/glib-2.0/gobject/gobject.h"' at ')'

Looks like the offending release glib2.0 (2.61.2-2) is from last night's updates.

[ Test case ]

- Just build mutter and ensure that no such errors are triggered

[ Regression potential ]

None, once it builds we're all happy :)
