I have released version 2.36.3 just a few moments ago [1], which
includes a fix for usage of types in OpenGL headers that I think is what
fixes the issue you were experiencing [1]. I have tested a GTK4-based
build of the new 2.36.3 release and the MiniBrowser (which you can get
built passing the “-DENABLE_MINIBROWSER=ON” flag to CMake when
configuring the build) is working well for me on Wayland, both with
Weston and GNOME Shell as compositors.

Hopefully your issue is solved by the new release :-)

Cheers,
—Adrián

[2] Believe it or not, using the wrong GL headers can result in odd
    failures at runtime due to some complexities in WebKit; such kind
	of thing has happened to us in the past.
