2.6.2: check test build fail on powerpc-apple-darwin8

[David Fang]

Hi,
 	I'm seeing the following error during make check for pidgin 
2.6.2 (new since 2.6.1).

/bin/sh ../../libtool --silent --tag=CC --mode=link gcc  -g -Os  -L/sw/lib 
-o check_libpurple  check_libpurple-check_libpurple.o 
check_libpurple-test_cipher.o check_libpurple-test_jabber_jutil.o 
check_libpurple-test_qq.o check_libpurple-test_yahoo_util.o 
check_libpurple-test_util.o -L/sw/lib -lcheck -L/sw/lib -lgobject-2.0 
-lgmodule-2.0 -lgthread-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -lintl

I haven't looked into this deeply yet, but is there a non-module version 
of this library that can/should be linked?
