OK, probably, it is because you did not put the module (the patch in the
correct place)

the patch I publish on the email is to replace the glib patch that is
located in:
/usr/ports/devel/glib20/files/patch-gmodule::gmodule-dl.c

the idea is:
you copy the code from the email, and replace the file in the 
/usr/ports/devel/glib20/files/patch-gmodule::gmodule-dl.c

and then just build glib20 again. either by the comand
(cd /usr/ports/devel/glib20;make clean deinstall install)  or
portupgrade -fp devel/glib20

should work....

There is no need to rebuild evolution.

the patch works with glib versions 2 
tested on glib2.12 till 2.16 (the last one).
