Not hard, just not a functional substitute:

[do anoncvs stuff to get gtk+ and gimp, which works fine]
jkh@time-> cd ..
jkh@time-> for dir in gtk+ gimp; do cd $dir; ./autogen.sh; gmake all install clean; cd ..; 
> done

You must have libtool installed to compile GTK+.
Get ftp://alpha.gnu.org/gnu/libtool-1.0h.tar.gz
(or a newer version if it is available)

You must have automake installed to compile GTK+.
Get ftp://ftp.cygnus.com/pub/home/tromey/automake-1.2d.tar.gz
(or a newer version if it is available)
gmake: *** No rule to make target `all'.  Stop.

You must have libtool installed to compile GIMP.
Get ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/libtool-1.2.tar.gz
(or a newer version if it is available)
...

The DEPENDENCIES like this are specifically what the ports collection
is good at dealing with so that things work consistently for most
users and not just they folks who've already installed libtook and/or
automake and simply forgotten that fact. :-)
