Comment(by ryandesign@…):

 Replying to [comment:8 LantzR@…]:
 > Note that both glib2 and gtk2 were built and working last month, so
 something changed recently.

 MacPorts 1.8.0 was released. It uses the -arch flag on all builds, not
 just universal builds. glib2 breaks on PowerPC machines when using the
 -arch flag. The glib2 port includes code to work around this, but only for
 universal builds. Therefore, non-universal builds on PowerPC now fail.

 > For me the undocumented ''build_arch'' did not exist in macports.conf

 Probably because you upgraded to MacPorts 1.8.0 from a prior version.
 MacPorts does not update your configuration files.
