I tried compiling recent gobject introspection releases.  The computer has 
these:-
--cpu AMD64 -2 cores
--gcc-4.8.1, glibc-2.17,
I tried 2 versions of glib (
glib-2.36.1, 
glib-2.36.2 ) 
(which builds )

and 3 versions of gobject introspection ( 
gobject-introspection-1.35.9, 
gobject-introspection-1.36.0,
gobject-introspection-1.37.1 )
( which do not build )

(the computer does NOT have cairo )

but make begins like so:-
#--------------------------------
[ -d gir ] || /bin/mkdir -p gir ; \
sed \
-e s,%CAIRO_SHARED_LIBRARY%,libcairo-gobject.so.2, \
-e s,%CAIRO_GIR_PACKAGE%,cairo-gobject, \
< gir/cairo-1.0.gir.in > gir/cairo-1.0.gir.tmp && mv gir/cairo-1.0.gir.tmp 
gir/cairo-1.0.gir
#--------------------------------

In all cases make ends like so:-
#--------------------------------
  GISCAN GLib-2.0.gir
ERROR: can't resolve libraries to shared libraries: gobject-2.0, glib-2.0
make[2]: *** [GLib-2.0.gir] Error 1

I do not know what 'GISCAN GLib-2.0.gir'  means and I am beginning to  wonder 
if there is some dislike between gobject-introspection and glibc-2.17. 

Advice would be appreciated.

sincerely
