#17503: gtk2 dies on Tiger/1.6.0 but works on Tiger/1.7.0

I hesitate to mention this but it might be useful. Three different
attempts at building gtk2 on Tiger/Developer2.5 with macports 1.6.0
yielded a binary that would not run gtk apps; it simply reported "Bus
Error" and died gracefully.
The interesting thing is I downloaded the 1.7.0 Beta 1 source and the
resultant gtk2 runs gtk apps fine on the same setup. Thumbs up for 1.7.0
so far.
(Failed 1.6.0 attempts were "with a bunch of other stuff already in
place," cleaning out ports and starting again building only gtk2 and its
dependencies, and then building each dependency first to avoid
complications caused by perl5 and perl5.8 colliding).
