Sory, I was wrong. This seems to work only for gtk+ and the other gnome
libs but not for libgr and imlib. In this case a gtk-config is installed
in $prefix/bin and the configure script looks for that script.

But after I hacked around a bit - and got it to fail for myself - I found
the answer: this gtk-config from gtk+ adds

- -L/home/norwegen/INSTALL/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -lglib -lXext
- -lX11 -lm

when I installed gtk+ under /home/norwegen/INSTALL. So configure will also
look in /home/norwegen/INSTALL/lib for libraries.

If you don't want to rebuild gtk+, you can use the following script, name
it gtk-config and set prefix to where you have imlib installed:

=======================================================================

#!/bin/sh

prefix=/usr/local
exec_prefix=${prefix}
exec_prefix_set=no

usage="\
Usage: gtk-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--libs] [--cflags]"

if test $# -eq 0; then
      echo "${usage}" 1>&2
      exit 1
fi

while test $# -gt 0; do
  case "$1" in
  -*=*) optarg=`echo "$1" | sed 's/[-_a-zA-Z0-9]*=//'` ;;
  *) optarg= ;;
  esac

  case $1 in
    --prefix=*)
      prefix=$optarg
      if test $exec_prefix_set = no ; then
        exec_prefix=$optarg
      fi
      ;;
    --prefix)
      echo $prefix
      ;;
    --exec-prefix=*)
      exec_prefix=$optarg
      exec_prefix_set=yes
      ;;
    --exec-prefix)
      echo $exec_prefix
      ;;
    --version)
      echo 0.99.9
      ;;
    --cflags)
      if test ${prefix}/include != /usr/include ; then
        includes=-I${prefix}/include
      fi
      echo -I${exec_prefix}/lib/glib/include $includes  -I/usr/X11R6/include
      ;;
    --libs)
      echo -L${exec_prefix}/lib   -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -lglib -lXext -lX11  -lm
      ;;
    *)
      echo "${usage}" 1>&2
      exit 1
      ;;
  esac
  shift
done
