FWIW, I don't need to set ARCHFLAGS like you're doing in order to
build the Gtk3 stack.  The only environment variables that I'm setting
before building is PKG_CONFIG_PATH, to point to Homebrew and XQuartz
*.pc files in /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig and /opt/local/lib/pkgconfig
respectively.

Any chance you could be a little bit more specific about how your
system is set up, and how you're building your Gtk3 stack, so we can
try and locate the differences?  Right now, I'm suspecting something
in your environment is causing you grief.

Thanks,

Brian

My setup:

OS X El Capitan version 10.11.6
Perl 5.24.0 from plenv installed into ~/.plenv
glib/gtk+3/pango/cairo from Homebrew
Pango/Cairo/Glib/Gtk3, latest tarballs installed from CPAN

$ for PKG in glib pango cairo gtk+3; do brew info $PKG 2>/dev/null |
head -n 1; done
glib: stable 2.50.0 (bottled)
pango: stable 1.40.3 (bottled)
cairo: stable 1.14.6 (bottled)
gtk+3: stable 3.22.1 (bottled)
