Comment (by kencu):

 Ryan is in charge of glib2, and he has been reluctant to update it for a
 while now as it is a core port that promises widespread wreckage, and also
 until I fixed meson recently, would not build universal.

 There has been a pull request in the queue for more than a year
 <https://github.com/macports/macports-ports/pull/5808> to update glib2,
 but everyone is too overwhelmed, I guess, to take that project on.

 There are several things I have wanted that needed a newer glib2, so the
 pressure is building. Just right now today, the whole world collapsed due
 to a gargantuan number of build failures of many ports on Apple Silicon
 due to their requirement for a header include for every function, and
 there about 5,000 broken ports due to that -- so the focus is on that
 issue right now.

 Your best bet, if you really need it, is to build that PR on your own
 system and provide feedback to get 'er moving.
