g_thread_init() is in a tiny separate library -lgthread. This
avoids having to link every GLib program against -lpthread.
The invocation for gtk-config you need is:
gcc -Wall whatever.c `gtk-config --cflags --libs gthread` `gdkmagick-config --libs`

Well, it is in the header file, but not in -lglib.

The FAQ has a short but pretty complete section on threading.
