Well, you're linking with avahi and avahi-glib from /usr, which pulls in
the glib in /usr in addition to the one you specified. Also libORBit. I
think it should still work if you've correctly set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to
point to the glib you have installed in /usr/local/lib, but maybe your
best option is to take a look at jhbuild and build the dependencies too:

http://live.gnome.org/Jhbuild

It's not that hard to set up, and it's what most GNOME developers use
themselves.
