The guilty syntax (appearing in several pango headers) seems to be this:
G_CONST_RETURN char **start
^^^^
Looking at the vast number of uses of G_CONST_RETURN in other header files,
I'm guessing that the word 'char' should really be 'gchar'.
I would test this idea by editing the headers in /usr/include/pango-1.0/pango
by hand, making the above change to every instance of 'C_CONST_RETURN char'.
If that trick works, then it's definitely a bug in the pango package and
needs to be fixed. Otherwise, I'm stumped.
