Eh..I think that I don't understand; you mean moving `(,glib ,bin) after
gobject-introspection like this?

     (append (if (target-hurd?)
                 '()
                 (list gobject-introspection)) ;g-ir-compiler, etc.
             (list
              `(,glib "bin")               ;glib-mkenums, etc.
              help2man
              perl
              pkg-config
              python-wrapper)))

That will trigger a rebuild that I would like to avoid.

We could avoid cons by doing

     (append (list `(,glib "bin"))      ;glib-mkenums, etc.
             (if (target-hurd?)
                 '()
                 (list gobject-introspection)) ;g-ir-compiler, etc.
             (list
              help2man
              perl
              pkg-config
              python-wrapper))

perhaps the best option?

Greetings,
Janneke
