I recommend projects for which introspection is optional, that they copy in the
introspection.m4 rather than take a build requirement on g-i.

Running "make V=1" will help debugging.  Is there a file
giscanner/config.py?  If so does it look right?
The way we set PYTHONPATH in common.mk looks like it should work
consistently, so not
sure what's going wrong for you.  Does rerunning autogen.sh help?  Are
you doing a srcdir != builddir
build?  (If so, try not doing that).
