Fix: 

Fix the syntax errors!

	How could this have passed the release tests?  There are
syntax errors in the file!
How-To-Repeat: 
	Try making gnomelibs

All of the above functions come from glib.  You are running glib/gtk
1.2.8 aren't you?

Remove all traces of GNOME from your system, do a pkg_version -v,
and update the appropriate ports.

Then try gnomelibs again.

Only if you don't follow the instructions and keep things up-to-date.
Yes, there are deficiences in the dependency versioning.  Yes, they're
being looked at.

Not surprisingly, the build machines tend to use fully up-to-date
ports, and thus don't get errors associated with not keep your
ports tree fully up-to-date, especially for major things like
glib/gtk.

Waiting for originator to confirm they don't have 
a fully up-to-date installation of glib/gtk

Obviously, the critical nature of this PR was such that the 
submitter seemed to be unable to provide an email address that 
actually worked.
