I just solved the problem, I needed to pass this into the "C compiler" field of the Anjuta project properties:
`pkg-config --cflags --libs glib-2.0 gtk+-3.0` For some reason, without the gtk+-3.0, the build chokes on "undefined reference: `g_type_init'". Also, it's a little strange that Anjuta needs to be manually pointed to glib-2.0. At any rate, this works for me now. Thanks everyone for your time.
