The message below confuses me, because there is no package gobject, gthread and ORBit-Cosnaming in the blfs-book. Any clues? Why is the configure script checking for libbonobo when I want to install it right now?

Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix.

Alternatively you may set the LIBBONOBO_CFLAGS and LIBBONOBO_LIBS environment 
variables
to avoid the need to call pkg-config.  See the pkg-config man page for
more details.

First, it _isn't_ checking for libbonobo, it's checking for LIBBONOBO - a quick glance at the message above suggests this is some way of overriding pkg-config, and I can't imagine why that would ever be a good idea.

Look at config.log, and find the error messages related to this problem. I guess you've missed at least one of the dependencies - perhaps glib-2 || gtk+-2 || atk || pango (you haven't mentioned these, but they are all needed for gnome, and the error message specifically mentions glib-2.0).
