Welcome to 'Slackware annoyances' country:

Basically, libxklavier makes an educated guess at where the xkb
libraries are, but if you haven't got them in a search path, or they are
incomplete -- you run into strife.

To fix this for GARNOME, edit desktop/libxklavier/Makefile, and add 
'--with-xkb-base=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xkb' to CONFIGURE_ARGS (near the 
bottom).

Then do a 'make clean' and 'make install' again to get things running.

Regards,

Paul
