[more undefined references to g_node_*, g_datalist_*,
 g_hook_*, g_completion_*, etc...]

you appear to be linking against a rather old version of glib.
prior to building gtk, you need to have successfully built and
installed the newest glib version as well (from  ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/gtk).
if you still get these kinds of undefined references, you most probably
are linking against an old version of the glib libs laying around on your
system somewhere.
