Yes, it looks like Debian carries some patch that fixes that:

https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-team/gtk-doc/-/blob/debian/master/debian/patches/revert_fix_build.patch

Looks like it's supposed to fix other bugs, but fixes this one as well
because it completely comments out the 'partial declaration' raise.
