Hello,

I had the same problem on 5.4-RELEASE. Modifying libtool to be more  
verbose as in http://mail-index.netbsd.org/tech-pkg/ 
2004/03/12/0027.html gave the error :

libtool: link: cannot find the library `' (libgmodule-2.0.la: ../ 
glib/.libs/libglib-2.0.so)

So I tried to re-install the devel/glib20 port, and that fixed the  
problem.

HTH,
