Well, as you figured out, you need jhbuild to set up the environment for you before doing anything manually. That's mentioned on the build page, so I guess you forgot to read it carefully.

The other obvious thing you forgot to do is to build libGLU, whatever that is. I guess it's a failure of lablgtk2's configure script that they don't check for it up front.

Oh yeah, one more thing: You forgot to subscribe to the mailing list before trying to post.
