Seems to fails to build with -z,defs:

  CCLD   test-gobject-greeter
/usr/bin/ld: test_gobject_greeter-test-gobject-greeter.o: undefined reference to symbol 'g_type_init'
/usr/bin/ld: note: 'g_type_init' is defined in DSO /usr/lib64/libgobject-2.0.so.0 so try adding it to the linker command line
/usr/lib64/libgobject-2.0.so.0: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
