I'll just note that after the first error, all bets are off.
Sometimes, the later errors are meaningful, but more usually it is
like any other compilation failure - one real error, then just
random messages.

I don't have any obvious suggestons: I built gtkmm-2.24.4 on
glibmm-2.28.1 a week or two ago, using LFS from April 16th plus
4.5.2 kernel headers, and BLFS from, I think, April 27th. That
was on x86_64 (and gcc-5.3). We don't know which architecture
(32/64) you are using, nor which versions of LFS and BLFS - but
perhaps something has got out of sync (e.g. newer version of -mm
packages, but older versions of glib and gtk) ? Also, you say you
updated glibmm, but not which newer version you used (nor which
older version, although the older version probably does not matter
unless it implies older glib and gtk).

I don't think that posting a phone number to a public mailing list
is usually a good idea :) Most of us get enough bogus phone calls
without publicising our numbers.
