Sorry, but I think this is a different error. The error before was in
the embedded glib, and this is a linking problem at the pkg-config
level. Could you start from a fresh build directory and then log the
build including the configure step? I want to see what the glib
configure says about dirent.h.

rm -rf pkg-config-0.28
tar -xf pkg-config-0.28.tar.gz
cd pkg-config-0.28
{ ./configure --with-internal-glib && make V=1; } 2>&1 | tee build.log

Then attach the resulting build.log.
