Moshiwanai, it was /lib/libc.so.5 NOT /usr/lib

Same here. Though I thought that I upgraded to libc-5.4.46, as part of 
doing an upgrade to the 2.2.7 kernel. RPM says I have it, but no sign
of the libs. Wonder what I messed up now... Ah, wait a minute, they
are under /usr/i486-linuxlibc5/lib.

The _Xsetlocale is being referred to in one of the libraries or .o
files. Use nm again to find out which. There is an option for the
linker to get it to tell you what it is doing, "-t"

gcc -g -O2 -Wall -o .libs/testgtk testgtk.o .libs/libgtk.so
-L/usr/local/lib -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXi -lXext
-lX11 -lm ../gdk/.libs/libgdk.so -lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lXi -lXext -lX11
-lm -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lXi -lXext -lX11 -L/usr/local/lib -rdynamic
-lgmodule -lglib -ldl -lm -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/local/lib

The linker is going to look for the libs specified with "-l" in
"stadard places", plus the directories specified in the "-L"
options. With the option --trace-symbol _Xsetlocale, the linker should 
tell you what lib or .o it needs it for. You can pass this to the
linker using:

	-Xlinker --trace-symbol -Xlinker _Xsetlocale

Modify the makefile to include these in the LDFLAGS, if not there,
then in CFLAGS.

No problem.
