Interesting: just tried again...
cd /usr/pkgsrc/devel/glib2
setenv PATH /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/X11R7/bin:/usr/pkg/bin
make

and then...

checking for the suffix of module shared libraries... eval: 1: Syntax error: Unt
erminated quoted string

pkgsrc libtool gives

shrext_cmds='.so'

its the one in work.i386/glib-2.20.3 which has the bad quoting.

How does pkgsrc use its own libtool rather than the package's one?

so it's the global symbols part which is broken... Ok...

Thanks!
