I asked someone:

G_DISABLE_DEPRECATED tells GLib to hide all deprecated functions.  They
still exist in the library, but they are hidden in the headers.  It's
considered bad form to do this in release code, because sometimes people
want to run older apps against newer libraries.

GMemChunk was deprecated in GLib 2.10.

To fix this there needs to be a patch that removes
-DG_DISABLE_DEPRECATED from every Makefile.am.
