Trouble compiling two Gnome libraries, Pango and GDK-Pixbuf on 10.5 PPC

Hello list members,
I use Xcode 3.1.4 on Mac OS X Leopard 10.5.8 PPC, and I am trying to build pango-1.36.3 and gdk-pixbuf-2.30.7 as dynamic libraries. These libraries are part of the dependencies I am putting together so that I might build my own copy of the GIMP. I have built my own GIMP in the past and have had no problems compiling Pango or GDK-Pixbuf. However, this time, the builds fail when trying to link the binary tools pango- querymodules and gdk-pixbuf-csource. When each of those two executables are linking, I get an error telling me that I have some undefined symbols. These symbols should be in the copies of libpango-1.0.dylib and libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.dylib that were just built. When I ran 'otool -Tv' on these libraries, I find that the table of contents is empty for both of them. For example like this:

libpango-1.0.dylib:
Table of contents (0 entries)
module name      symbol name

When I ran 'otool -tv' on them to disassemble the text section I find that the symbols seem to be there, but with an empty table of contents the library cannot be linked against. I was able to compile both libraries when linking statically, but I do not want to use these builds. This is because dynamic linking is the default for both libraries, and also the OSX "way" is to use dynamic libraries. Furthermore, I don't know that the static builds will even work when building GTK+. I am on a newer installation of OSX 10.5.8 than when I built Pango and GDK-Pixbuf earlier, so something must be awry in my build system. I tried installing a slightly older version of GNU libtool in case that was the problem, but got the same build error. After hours of searching on Google I found only one hit at Apple Discussions which was close to my problem. However, the suggested fix did not help in my case. This is really puzzling me since in the last month alone I have compiled more than a dozen other libraries using the same autotools build system, and none of those builds had any problems. Can anybody give me some advice as to where to look to fix this problem? Thank you for reading my kind of long post.
