$ ./configure --with-x-toolkit=gtk
...

However, glibconfig.h is on my system:

$ locate glibconfig.h
/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h

and pkg-config gives the correct location

$ pkg-config --cflags glib-2.0
-I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/glib-2.0/include

Somehow the cflags doesn't get propagated correctly to the Makefile in src/

Not an autotools expert, so I have no idea how to fix this.

Note missing "i386".

This is http://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=8497 

You can work around it by adding "i386" after "unix" in the definition
of cpp_undefs at line 3106 of configure.in and regenerating configure,
or editing configure directly at line 13527, and reconfiguring; or maybe
by simply fixing ALL_CFLAGS in src/Makefile before building.

cpp_undefs="`echo $srcdir $configuration $canonical unix i386 |

etc
