See my comments inline.

I installed it. The following steps were necessary:
0. make sure that /usr/X11R6/bin is in your path.
1. Compile / install pkgconfig
2. Compile / install gettext
3. cp /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig/* /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/
Does setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH to include /usr/X11R6/lib/pkgconfig also
do
that?
I have to try that. On my system the variable is not set at all.
4. Compile / install glib
5. Modify /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/gthread-20.pc (to avoid the
-pthread
warnings)
Where does that "-pthread" flag come from? Is that a bug in GLib 2.x
that
puts that flag in even on OS X?
Yes, it comes from the glib2.4 installation. It thinks that -pthread is
needed on Mac OS X. If you do not do it, everything continues to work,
but
you get a lot of warnings.
6. Compile / install pango
7. compile / install atk
8. compile / install gtk using --without-libtiff --without-libpng
--without-libjpeg
Hopefully it also works without those flags if you install the relevant
libraries.
I think so, but I had problems with these libraries (you described the
workarounds). So I just built a minimal system for ethereal.
Should I update the readme such that we recommend 2.4?
Yes, although we might want to suggest changing PKG_CONFIG_PATH rather
than copying the .pc files, and either continue to suggest installing
the
JPEG/PNG/TIFF libraries or describe both alternatives.
I have to setup a G5 today or tomorrow and will see if the
PKG_CONFIG_PATH
will work.
