I should explain better:

what I am thinking is that it is not because the libglib libraries are
the wrong ones, but that they allow the program to get as far as
actually starting, whereupon it tries a glibc call (likely the startup
before main() ) and that segfaults. You could find out where it
segfaults to confirm this, my guess is it is before it gets to main().
(use gdb with b main). If it was adding the libglib libraries that was
bad it would get past main and try to call gtk_init() and then crash.

Hence my reasoning that trying to run with a miss-matched pair of
kernel-glibc is probably a dead end. 

So the thing to try is putting in the libglib stuff and running on some
other modern distro. Possibly taking out glibc as it is available in the
distro, (and the glibc in the distro will work with the kernel in that
distro).
