Oh, and what happens if you run

./configure --prefix=/usr --disable-gtktest

The error you saw might have happened because the configure test is
trying to compile and link a GTK+ program, when you might have only the
runtime files installed. We don't need the development files for PyGTK,
just the runtime, so if that test works I'll adjust the configure test
not to try to compile a GTK+ program.
