I can't get configure to run

I have downloaded from ftp.gtk.org
the latest version 1.2.8

I have unzipped this into a directory called
~/GTK/src/gtk+-1.2.8

Now when I try to run ./configure this is what I get

loads of lines where configure is checking stuff, 
..........
........
......
then

*** The glib-config script installed by GLIB could not be found
*** If GLIB was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GLIB_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to glib-config.
configure: error: 
*** GLIB 1.2.8 or better is required. The latest version of GLIB
*** is always available from ftp://ftp.gtk.org/.

So, why isn't this specified in the requirements for GTK

http://www.gtk.org/faq/gtkfaq-2.html#ss2.1
2.1 What do I need to run GTK+? 
To compile GTK+, all you need is a C compiler (gcc) and the X Window System
and associated libraries on your system. 

clearly this is not the case.
So, If I download the glib stuff, I ought to be able to compile GTK+,
except that attempts to 'make' glib also fail with
"glib.h", line 502: Error: "," expected instead of "gssize".
"glib.h", line 503: Error: "," expected instead of "gsize".
.........  And more lines related to other typedef errors

I can't find anywhere that typedef's gint32.

WHASSUUPP !

I hope to hear from you soon
