[yocto] gobject introspection needing pygobject (cross-compilation)

I've got a few packages in my image which need gobject introspection.
(x86-64 host, ARM target)
One is building fine, but the other - NetworkManager - is failing to
generate the introspection data because it can't analyse the cross-compiled
library. Apparently it uses pygobject in doing this, and thus needs a
version of that for the target architecture.
Are there steps I can take to achieve this? I guess it needs some 'qemu'
technique as with other the G-I support mechanisms?

(Currently working with Krogoth release)
