Hmm.  What does the "config.log" script say?  I'm curious why it didn't
detect the API change?

Did you build GTK+ with "xlc_r" as well?  I'm *not* an AIX expert, but
the crash symptom looked a bit similar to the one for the GLib problem,
and I'm wondering whether stuff that *calls* GLib also has to be
compiled with "xlc_r" (perhaps because, if it's not, GTK+ gets linked
with the non-reentrant "libc" in some fashion?).
