Symbols starting with g_ are almost always in glib (or libgnome, but we
can rule that out; starting with g_module are in libgmodule).

The symbols are undefined in libgtk.so. 

Therefore, libgtk.so is making calls to functions that are not in your
libglib (or you are not linking to glib; but from the -lglib, we know that
you are).

The most likely cause of this is a too-old glib which does not have these
symbols.
