A framework is essentially a directory with a particular structure,
conventionally named with a .framework extension. It may contain
libraries, header files, documentation, and other resources. It also
has provisions for versioning, so that, e.g., one framework could
provide support for both GLib 1.2 and 2.0. See the following article,
if you're interested:
Mac OS X Frameworks
<http://developer.apple.com/documentation/MacOSX/Conceptual/
BPFrameworks/index.html>
The question is about building / packaging / deploying GLib and
GLib-based applications on OS X, where a framework may be more
desirable than a 'make install' in /usr/local.

What the heck is a "framework" and why don't you just use glib on OS X?
It compiles and works just fine.
