What make are you using?  Glade projects tend to want gmake as opposed
to BSD make.

If the other systems are non FreeBSD, you might be seeing a problem with
one of the GTK autoconf macros.  A patch has been submitted, but I do
not know what its status is with regard to being committed.  I'll try to
hunt it down for you if you think it would help.

You might also try asking the Glade developers directly.  Perhaps the
issue is an FAQ.  They might be able to help shed some light on things.
