I have found the upstream issue:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/igt-gpu-tools/-/issues/116
We can wait it out until the release, which will be out Soon (tm), or we
make use of the patch that debian applies to igt-gpu-tools so it can
work with the new libproc2 API:
https://salsa.debian.org/xorg-team/app/intel-gpu-tools/-/blob/067ddd789fd80c12972fb92db8f93fadbdc4530e/debian/patches/libproc2_library
AFAICS, this would not lead to a world-rebuild.
Thoughts?
