As stated, Mozilla is looking for GTK 1.x. If you want to compile
against GTK 2.x instead, you can put this line in .mozconfig (or pass
the argument to configure, depending on how you're building):

ac_add_options --enable-default-toolkit=gtk2

I assume pkg-config will work since you managed to install GTK.

HTH. Further questions about building Mozilla should probably go to a
Mozilla-specific list/newsgroup/forum.
