It's impossible to tell from what you posted. The messages that you've posted regarding gtk+2 could come from a large number of different causes. Try to install gtk+2 again, and post the output starting with the last line the compiler tries to run before errors occur (assuming that's the failure mode--impossible to tell at this stabe).
