The attached patch seems to resolve the FTBFS. I have not tested the
resulting binaries, but it's a trivial change following the same pattern
seen in many other GLib-based libraries.
The documentation of g_once_init_enter() now says:
While location has a volatile qualifier, this is a historical artifact
and the pointer passed to it should not be volatile.
volatile behaves like const, so it is valid to pass a pointer of type "T*"
to a function like g_once_init_enter() that is declared to take an argument
of type "volatile T*".
(Conversely, it would not be valid to pass a pointer of type "volatile T*"
to a function like g_mutex_lock() that is declared to take an argument
of type "T*" - again, this is the same rule as for const.)

Subject: Drop unnecessary volatile qualifier from g_once_init_enter()
argument
When compiling with gcc, g_once_init_enter() is a macro implemented
in terms of gcc's C++11-style atomic operations. Since gcc 11 it is
considered to be an error to pass a volatile pointer to these built-in
functions.
The volatile qualifier appears to have been added as a result of a
past misunderstanding about whether volatile is beneficial for
thread-safety in C/C++ (it is not).
