I spoke too soon.

Although the WebKitGTK package itself built successfully using GCC 11,
the switch to GCC 11 caused many failures in programs that use
WebKitGTK.  For example:

  https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1530462/details (epiphany)
  https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1530484/details (gnome-online-accounts)
  https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1530479/details (yelp)
  https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1530407/details (surf)
  https://ci.guix.gnu.org/build/1530465/details (zenity)

See below for an illustrative excerpt from the failed epiphany log.

I've pushed commit 1007eb4874b7d3d2e0ecda07157f5794a0591ea2 to 'master',
which reverts commit 63f78f6a6e.

I've also reopened <https://bugs.gnu.org/51591>, to track progress on
fixing the webkitgtk build on i686 using clang-11.  I have a couple of
ideas of how to fix it.  To be continued...

       Mark
