One of your libraries is compiled against libgthread-1.3 and thus
installed a .la file that sucks in 1.3 as a dependency.  Delete
everything from both 1.3 and 2.0, rebuild it all from scratch with
only 2.0 available, I'm sure it will work if you delete _everything_
and be sure you have fresh source trees for 2.0 so that there are no
1.3 leftovers.

Anyway, does not happen to anyone else, your system is just in a
confused state.
