Have a look in the source for an ltmain.sh file, and look for the version in that. If it is 1.3.5, you need to update the libtool scripts for Darwin compatibility, using "UpdateLibtool: true" in the .info. If the version is 1.4 or above, updating the scripts aren't necessary, as version 1.4 and above have inbuilt support for Darwin/MacOS X. If you can get the package working, submit it to the package submissions tracker, and one of the core developers will commit it, if it follows policy. Since Christoph resigned, many of his packages are open to new maintainers, so if you want, you can be made the new maintainer for gdk-pixbuf, too.
