Go to the Curves tool and adjust the white point down to 128.  This should darken the image by 50% (eyedropper verifies that white is now 50% grey), however if you do the same with Colors > GEGL activated then your results are quite different - instead of coming out at 50% grey, the same white pixel now comes out at 22% dark grey - which is clearly incorrect behavior.

But it's also conveniently about a 0.45 gamma correction from the correct value....
