Messed up my GTK really, really bad

[Bruce Ferrell <bferrell baywinds org>]

OK gang, go ahead and laugh.

In the long and torturous path to getting an application going on my 
system, I have meesed up my GTK tool chain something feirce.  Somewhere 
along the line, I'managed to create a situation where gtk+2.09 from 
source thinks glib-2.2.3 is installed in /usr/local/glib-2.2.3 as 
evidenced by this:

/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=link gcc  -O2 -march=i386 -mcpu=i686 -Wall 
-version-info 0:9:0 -export-dynamic -rpath /usr/lib 
-export-symbols-regex "^[^_].*" ../gdk-pixbuf/libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la 
-L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXft -lXrender -lXext -lX11 -lfreetype -lz 
-Wl,--export-dynamic -lpangoxft-1.0 -lpangox-1.0 -lpango-1.0 
-lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -ldl -lglib-2.0 -lm -o libgdk-x11-2.0.la

suggestions on how to fix this other than re-formatting would be very 
much appreciated... I already did do a re-install
