Thus, configure for Emacs does not find g_type_init and does not call it.I simply thought: Why is configure checking something really not related with Athena?
I don't understand the question. You can link in for example dbus or libxml, both which doesn't have anything to do with Athena. But in both cases we must check for them. The text font for Emacs is taken from GConf if available (but Xsettings is preferred), so we must check for that. Not all optional libraries in Emacs are related to the toolkit used.
