FWIW, I'm running OSX 10.7.5 on an Air.

Otherwise, any insight into whether gtksourceview2 should be accessible - or not - would be helpful.  Depending on answers I'll try to follow up with the relevant port maintainer(s).

Variant to enable building of a glade widget catalog for glade3 added in
r119543.  To enable this feature use

sudo port selfupdate
sudo port install gtksourceview2 +glade

You should then see the GtkSourceView category and widget added to
glade3's widget selection pane next time you start the app.
