This isn't the real config.log; it's the output of configure. configure
should have produced the config.log in the same directory, and near the
end, it should contain the exact program, compiler command, and error
messages involved.

However, given that it's picking up /usr/bin/pkg-config, the most likely
culprit is that GLib is installed under /usr/local or whatever you
passed as --prefix to its configure script. Thus, it may help to run as:

PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/lib/pkgconfig ./configure

Modify as appropriate for your environment. If you haven't seen it, the
full install guide may also be handy:

HTH.
