This is not a good idea because perfparse expects glib.h from glib-2.X.
If you enabled --with-glib12=3D/path/to/glib-config, find out if there is=
 a problem with
glib-config.
If you did not enable it, do it.

this is a glib-2.0 feature.

If you have problems to install glib-2 on a redhat ES, the best is to ask=
 Redhat for
support : you pay for that :)
When glib-2 is installed, ensure that pkg-config is installed too and rec=
ompile
perfparse.  Don't reuse what you did before : uncompress perfparse.tar.gz=
 in an empty
directory and try again.
