There is `-lglib-2.0` missing at the link command line.  Check the
Makefile.am for libgobject: libgobject_2_0_la_LIBADD should include
$(libglib) and then check Makefile if $(libglib) was substituted
correct with $(top_builddir)/glib/libglib-2.0.la and then check if
$(top_builddir)/glib/libglib-2.0.la exists.
