This issue cropped up a year ago:

Then, the code in valac to rely on the regexp functions was backed
out. Is that feasible here, or do I need to start maintaining a patch
set for glib 2.12 compatibility (a lot more work than simply packaging
it :-/)?

I've applied a patch by Mark Lee to fix this, GLib 2.12 compatibility
should now be restored in master.
