Unless you don't have the mettle to modify the automake/autoconf/
autowhatever stuff that insinuates glib-config-2.0 into configure and
friends... ;-)

The Pango download page (http://www.pango.org/download.shtml) needs to be
updated.  It reads, in part:

    In order to build GTK+-1.3, you'll first need to have the libtiff,
    libgiff, and libjpeg libraries on your system, then build and install
    GLib-1.3, FriBidi, Pango, and GTK+-1.3 in that order.

This is where I noticed the FriBidi reference.
