Initially I thought that perhaps HB switched to C++14 or 17 or 20, but
this seems like a perfectly valid C++11 feature:
    https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/types/is_trivially_copyable

On our build farm the only builder that failed was Debian 8, while
Debian 9 (and literally everything else) works as expected.

Debian 8 is past the end of life already and even the extended long
time support (I didn't even know that was a thing) ends immediately
after the TL 2022 release. I don't really see any harm any longer in
switching to Debian 9 (or another equivalent distribution; someone
else was arguing for Ubuntu not that long ago).
