The __va_copy reference comes from the egcs vararg.h header.  You are
getting it because the glib RPM you installed was compiled with egcs
and so, when the /usr/lib/glib/include/glibconfig.h was created, it
included the line
	#define G_VA_COPY	__va_copy
because __va_copy was the correct configuration parameter on that
machine.

I suspect you could fix it either by using egcs to compile gnome-libs
or by rebuilding glib with your compiler.
