The problem seems to be that that the glib (and pango) headers don't
correspond with the installed libraries.

If you've overridden the include paths with env. vars. or via configure
params, you need to also do the corresponding changes to the lib paths.

Alternatively, if it is coming from pkgconfig,  It is possible that your
(locally installed?) glib-2.0.pc file is somehow messed up and points to the
system lib paths instead of the local versions.
