I fixed that problem.  It turned out to be stupid library linking errors 
(Glib wasn't compiled with -R) that exporting LD_LIBRARY_CONFIG fixed.

Now it compiles fine, but crashes with a bus error.  Here's the last bit of
the truss:

read(3, "\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0".., 1300)     = 1300
brk(0x003E6F78)                                 = 0

And here's the gdb backtrace:

I'm kinda suspicious about that "gtkarg.c No such file or directory"  
message.

I've also attached gzipped output from the make and configure stages on a
pristine 0.9.1 tree; since I initially had build problems, they might be 
useful.

thanks,
chris
