I slightly disagree for "can't build anymore". I have uncommited changes that could fix that.
This stay uncommited as there is no request, I haven't yet run tested that and there is still some minor fixes needed in the changes.

I think a x86_64 build is a much higher priority.

Anyway, I was not able to build glib-2.30 without python.
I am sure that could be done, but that may not be easy and maybe not so maintainable.
For thoses reasons, the python move is the easiest.
