Hi Benny,

This isn't exactly the answer you're looking for, but this same test
works fine for me on NetBSD/amd64 9.99.88.

===> Testing for p5-gtk3-0.038
PERL_DL_NONLAZY=1 "/usr/pkg/bin/perl" "-MExtUtils::Command::MM" "-MTest::Harness" "-e" "undef *Test::Harness::Switches; test_harness(0, 'blib/lib', 'blib/arch')" t/*.t

I took a look at the initial test, but didn't get much from it. It seems
it isn't finding GTK3 itself, for some reason. Not sure why there would
be an architecture-specific difference (if that's what it is), could it
be something in your environment?
