some files are generated automaticaly during the build process, i guess 
you have overwritten the ones that ship with the source-distribution
(in this case gmarshal.c and cmarshal.h). one soulution might be to 
uncomment the related lines in glib/gobject/makefile.xxx and copy the files
from the source-distribution again

the same happens with other files. HINT: search all makefiles for perl 
and comment out the lines that are intend to generate any code (again: 
the files
that are generated do allready exist).

please drop me a line if you are successfull.

if you just want to 'use' gtk gdk etc. i strongly suggest to download 
the binary distributions from http://gladewin32.sf.net! due to some 
searching via google i
even got themes (pixmap themes and others, it was not that easy to find 
a binary distribution) up and running.
link: http://konap.sourceforge.net/gtk-themes-win32-2003-09-01.tar.gz

the only thing i'm still missing is a WORKING svg pixbuf loader.
