OK, more debugging shows that the source of the problem is in the file 
/usr/pkg/include/glib/glib-1.2/glib.h from the glib package.   That
is causing the compile failure for x11/gtk.   

The critical bit is below (quoting from glib-1.2/glib.h).  Note that
when compiling:

 G_INLINE_FUNC is not initially defined (but gets defined in this file)
 G_CAN_INLINE gets defined to 1
 __GNUC__ is defined
 __STRICT_ANSI__ is NOT defined
 __OPTIMIZE__ is defined

so that basically results in this line getting run:

#      define G_INLINE_FUNC extern inline


and on Darwin if you do "extern inline" it generates a "T" symbol,
so if you put that in a .h file and include it more than once you are
going to get a duplicate symbol compile time error [e.g. on functions 
like g_bit_nth_lsf() ... also included below, as an example].


We could modify the glib.h (via a pkgsrc patch file) to do "static inline"
rather than "extern inline" when __GNUC__ and __OPTIMIZE__ are set?

/* inlining hassle. for compilers that don't allow the `inline' keyword,
 * mostly because of strict ANSI C compliance or dumbness, we try to fall
 * back to either `__inline__' or `__inline'.
 * we define G_CAN_INLINE, if the compiler seems to be actually
 * *capable* to do function inlining, in which case inline function bodys
 * do make sense. we also define G_INLINE_FUNC to properly export the
 * function prototypes if no inlining can be performed.
 * we special case most of the stuff, so inline functions can have a normal
 * implementation by defining G_INLINE_FUNC to extern and G_CAN_INLINE to 1.
