Hi Emmanuele,

That commit was already present when I tried this morning but to be 
absolutely certain, I just re-built Glib and Gtk-2 again Unfortunately 
though, the problem is still present... :-(

Just to be absolutely clear... there's no problem when I try to build 
Glib.  Glib itself builds fine.  The linker problem arises when I 
subsequently try to build Gtk-2 (specifically, the 'gtk-2-24' branch).  
Gtk-2 uses the glib-genmarshal (python) script from Glib to generate 
some source files - notably, 'gtk/gtkmarshal.c'.  That's the bit that's 
stopped working.
