Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0] we noticed
that gobject-introspection could not be built reproducibly.

This is because it embeds the current build path, presumably for
some kind of testing. However, removing this does not cause the
tests to fail AFAICT, reflected in the attached patch.

There hasn't seem to be any update on this bug in 344 days, in which
time the Reproducible Builds effort has come on a long way.

Would you consider applying this patch and uploading?

An equivalent patch was applied upstream a while ago.
