The build process dies in devel/gobject-introspection and complains that it cannot find header files for gio-unix-2.0. From what I can see the problem looks like the fact that pkgconf is returning the wrong include path for these header files, running:

I have the same problem with devel/gobject-introspection. It's also a 
dependecy for Xorg.

A couple of days ago devel/pkg-config was removed from ports as 
deprecated, and replaced with devel/pkgconf, and consequently the build 
dependencies of many ports were changed. Maybe this recent change is not 
thoroughly worked out?
