A couple of notes:

1. If you did `yum install gtk+-devel' you would have
development files for Gtk+ 1.2 too.  No need to `figure
out things by looking at /usr/include', just install any of
Gtk+ 1.2 and 2.x, or both, as you wish.

2. The discussed `Cannot load shared libraries' is a run
time error, not a compilation error.
