glib is a CVS module.  Follow the instructions in the FAQ, section 4.2
on checking out CVS modules.  Where it says:

	% cvs checkout gtk+ gnome-libs ... 

the "..." means, fill in all of the gnome CVS modules here.  You should
check out all of the modules listed in Section 4.4, "What order do I
compile the modules in?" in this manner.

I should probably make this clearer in the FAQ; that whole section is
a little too jumbled for my tastes.
