I'm a WebKit newbie too, but maybe you're missing pkgconfig stuff?

# pkg-config --cflags glib
-I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib64/glib/include

# pkg-config --libs glib
-lglib

# cat /usr/lib/pkgconfig/glib.pc
prefix=/usr
exec_prefix=/usr
libdir=/usr/lib
includedir=/usr/include

Name: GLib
Description: C Utility Library
Version: 1.2.10
Libs: -L${libdir} -lglib
Cflags: -I${includedir}/glib-1.2 -I${libdir}/glib/include

Regards
Alex
