This is still an issue. Apparently Gnome migrated to gitlab and the bug
report on the previous system was automatically closed. The second last
message on that report points to

https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/issues/221

Maybe the configure script should be updated to mention that URL. Please
file a bug report (M-x report-emacs-bug) to request that change.
