Nearly there for me (Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit)
The files config.sub and config.guess in the glib
package are too old. I'm not at my build machine now
so it's very inconvenient to fix it right now, but
I'll do it tomorrow morning.
You can also fix it yourself by finding more
updated config.sub and config.guess files and
replace the old ones in src/packages/glib-1.2.10.tar.gz.
