I had similar problems when trying to use the sunfreeware.com precompiled 
packages for sol8-intel a few months back.  None of my apps would link 
correctly, with most of the gdk and gtk functions reported as undefined 
symbols.

In the end, I just got the source tarballs and built the libraries myself 
using the normal "./configure ; make ; make install" method, but make sure 
you do all the dependencies first.

Alternatively, I've since been told by someone else that the Sun GNOME 2.0 
desktop for Solaris 8 package includes a useable set of libraries, so you 
could try installing that instead.
