This looks like introspection support wasn't built for Mutter. Could you
try rebuilding everything from scratch with:

 jhbuild build -a -f -c

(-a = re-run autogens.h
 -f = build modules even if they haven't changed
 -c = run make clean before building)

? I'm wondering if something didn't get built right when you were
dealing with all the other build issues that we've had over the last few
days.
