This successfully mitigates the libkkc issue, and we need it anyway for
ibus-anthy. After uploading that patch, I'll downgrade this bug to non-RC.

I still think this.

Unfortunately this doesn't work, because -lstdc++ gets stripped from the
linker arguments (possibly by libtool), and then the link fails because
the static library needs to use symbols from it.
Possibly adding -Wl,--copy-dt-needed-entries to the Marisa_gir_CFLAGS
would help?
I don't know what the correct solution would be, but I'm reasonably
sure that making Marisa.gir claim to be a GObject binding for libstdc++
is not it.
