girara also had an SO major bump, so that means its ABI_DEPENDS
should reflect that in buildlinking. I'm not sure if its API
also changed in backwards-incompatible ways? I just did a quick pass
through and tweaked the buildlink3.mk files for girara and zathura.
(Also not sure if there are zathura changes that would create ABI
instability?) (I did compile test my changes.)

(The DESCR for girara also seems perhaps out of date now it
doesn't use GTK anymore, though I see the upstream doesn't seem to
have changed their blurb yet.)
