Looks not too good (it doesn't even use foreach for this endless list of doing 
the same thing again and again). It also needs support for component 
selection and missing finding the programs that come with gtk.
It mixes several things although they are not even from the same source 
package upstream (glib / gtk / pango / ...).
It also doesn't make sure that the *config.h matches the library found (if you 
ever have two versions installed).
