That's quite out of date.  You should update your ports tree via cvsup
before trying to build gdk-pixbuf.

Are you using the ports collection?  If so, the dependency
(devel/glib12) should be automatically built and installed as part of
the build process for gdk-pixbuf.  It's possible that the Makefile for
gdk-pixbuf is lacking the necessary dependency, though, in which case
you could simply build and install glib12 first, and then return to the
build of gdk-pixbuf.

Hope this helps.
