did you install gtk+'s development package?

i have:

  [little:~] muppet% fink list gtk+2
  Information about 2059 packages read in 1 seconds.
   i   gtk+2            2.2.4-3      The Gimp Toolkit
   i   gtk+2-dev        2.2.4-3      The Gimp Toolkit
   i   gtk+2-shlibs     2.2.4-3      The Gimp Toolkit

when you run pkg-config directly, does it show you anything?

  [little:~] muppet% pkg-config --modversion gtk+-2.0
  2.2.4

if you can't find the info with pkg-config by hand, Makefile.PL doesn't 
stand a chance.
