There is actually no changes.  See e.g. 
https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/at-spi2-core/-/issues/77

This is merely a source code merge to make thinks simpler and ease 
testing, there is no actual changes related to it.  Which actually might 
make things better going forward :)

I don't know how Arch is dealing with this, but it could have even kept 
all the packages identical and just have built them out of one 
repository instead of three.  That's a distribution choice, they can 
just as well have one package installing the three libraries and it 
should all be fine.

Really, so long as the distribution doesn't mess it up, there should be 
no user-facing changes resulting of this.

There could have been other changes in the stack leading to bugs or so, 
but that's most likely orthogonal to the merge.
