Trying random things and FWIW,

I removed libIDL-0.8.0_1, glib-1.2.10_9 and glib_2.2.1.  Also verified
bits weren't left around /usr/local/include, /usr/local/lib, etc.  With a
clean slate (no mozilla installed either), I did a fresh install of
libIDL.  That results in libIDL 0.8.0_1 and glib 2.2.1 being installed as
a dependancy.

Then I began building mozilla-headers from ports.  It realizes it needs
glib 1.2.10_9, so it installs that.  No problem so far...  It finds
/usr/local/include/libIDL (properly symlinked to ./libIDL-2.0/libIDL
during the install of libIDL) and proceeds...  Then, perhaps due to some
conflict between 1.2.10_9 and 2.2.1, it fails to find glib (after having
just installed it?):

cc -o xpidl -I/usr/X11R6/include  -I/usr/X11R6/include -Wall -W
-Wno-unused -Wpointer-arith -Wcast-align -Wno-long-long -O -pipe -pipe
-DNDEBUG -DTRIMMED -ffunction-sections -I/usr/local/include/glib12
-I/usr/local/include/orbit-1.0 -I/usr/local/include  xpidl.o xpidl_idl.o
xpidl_util.o xpidl_header.o xpidl_typelib.o xpidl_doc.o xpidl_java.o
-L../../../dist/bin -L../../../dist/lib ../../../dist/lib/libxpt.a
-L/usr/local/lib  -lIDL -lglib -lm
/usr/libexec/elf/ld: cannot find -lglib
<snip>

I've verified /usr/local/lib/glib does exist, and I've pointed the symlink
to both glib 1.2.10_9 and 2.2.1 with the same result.  This seems to be
where I'm stuck for the day.

Is this a FAQ, or is there an easy way to get glib 1.2.10_9 and 2.2.1 to
coexist so Mozilla and libIDL can be happy simultaneously?
