Problem Building Pango - glib issue

[arnuld uttre <arnuld mizong gmail com>]

Pango configures fine and I get this error while compiling.

I googled for the error and came across this solution:  http://www.mail-archive.com/gtk-i18n-list gnome org/msg01393.html . Problem is my glib is qute old, so I have installed latest stable glib, cairo and fontcofig in /opt directory and I update the paths using this:

export PREFIX="/opt"
export PATH="$prefix/bin:$PATH"
export PKG_CONFIG_PATH="$prefix/lib/pkgconfig:$PKG_CONFIG_PATH"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$prefix/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"
export ACLOCAL_FLAGS="-I $prefix/share/aclocal:$ACLOCAL_FLAGS"

new glib-mkenums does have ENUMPREFIX but the old one is not. Pango is picking up the old glib-mkenums only. I can't just do PATH="/opt" only because then it won't find other things like "make " as normal user binary path  will disappear. 

How can I make pango to use the /opt for glib and cairo and other packages and pick up the rest from default path ?
