You're better off adding /usr/local/lib to your /etc/ld.so.conf file, because 
then you won't need to keep setting the environment variable and ldconfig will 
work correctly.

Are you using a configure script cache file? If so, it's quite possible that 
it's caching the old state of your machine and not actually testing for 
gtk-config. Try deleting it.

(And I should say here that I find gtk/gdk/glib one of the most trouble-free 
installations I've ever done. And I don't use RPM's, either.)
