You compiled Pango but what Pango backends did you compile? Pango's
configure script told you about this (in the last lines of it's
output). Try running 'pkg-config --list-all' and see what pango
packages it lists. You will need pangoxft or pangox to compile gtk+
and gimp requires that you have pangoft2 as well.
