dopewars fails to cross build from source, because it contains a broken,
outdated, embedded copy of AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0. The version of the macro in
the dopewars uses the wrong pkg-config. The problem is fixed upstream
(in glib2.0). Please remove this copy from dopewars. If you insist on
keeping it, please register it. See
https://wiki.debian.org/EmbeddedCodeCopies for instructions on how to do
so. In principle, just removing it from acinclude.m4 should work.

Closing, as the new upstream release no longer ships acinclude.m4,
and it now successfully cross-builds [0].
