I had the same problem on Irix 6.3 but solved with a simple modification
in the gdk Makefile.

Here's a part from the original Makefile:

INCLUDES = \
        -DG_LOG_DOMAIN=\"Gdk\"  \
        -I$(top_srcdir)         \
        -DGTK_NO_CHECK_CASTS    \
        -DUSE_XIM               \
                \
        -I/opt/lib/glib/include -I/opt/include -D_REENTRANT             \


libgdk_la_SOURCES = \       

The problem is the \ after -D_REENTRANT. The make thinks that the
libgdk... line is also the part of the INCLUDES.

So after (each) configure delete the \ and it works! (At least for me :)

1.1.9 and 1.1.11 has the same problem.
