-Using an uninstalled copy of GLIB [ Unsupported ]
-=================================================
-
-You can compile GTK+ against a copy of GLIB that you have not
-yet installed. To do this, give the --with-glib=DIR options
-to ./configure. For instance:
-
- ./configure --with-glib=../glib-1.3.2
-
-This, however, will not work if you built GLIB with different
-source and build directories.
-
-It is recommended that you install GLIB before compiling
-GTK+. The --with-glib option is not regularly tested
-and may not function correctly. In addition, 
-inter-library dependencies won't be generated when
-using --with-glib=.
