Difficulty building, undefined reference, libtool stripping libs

I'm trying to build an xfce desktop, but I'm running into very similar problems building a number of the packages, namely, I can't seem to get the gtk/gdk libs to make it to the link line.  At the moment:

git clone git://git.xfce.org/xfce/xfce4-panel
cd xfce4-panel
./autogen.sh
make
....
make[4]: Leaving directory `/home/user/temp/xfce4-panel/plugins/windowmenu'
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/user/temp/xfce4-panel/plugins/windowmenu'
make[3]: Entering directory `/home/user/temp/xfce4-panel/plugins'
make[3]: Nothing to be done for `all-am'.
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/user/temp/xfce4-panel/plugins'
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/user/temp/xfce4-panel/plugins'
Making all in wrapper
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/user/temp/xfce4-panel/wrapper'
  GEN    wrapper-dbus-client-infos.h
make  all-am
make[3]: Entering directory `/home/user/temp/xfce4-panel/wrapper'
  CC     wrapper-main.o
  CC     wrapper-wrapper-plug.o
  CC     wrapper-wrapper-module.o
  CCLD   wrapper
/usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: wrapper-wrapper-plug.o: undefined reference to symbol 'gdk_color_parse'
/usr/bin/ld.bfd.real: note: 'gdk_color_parse' is defined in DSO /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0 so try adding it to the linker command line
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgdk-x11-2.0.so.0: could not read symbols: Invalid operation
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
make[3]: *** [wrapper] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/user/temp/xfce4-panel/wrapper'

make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/user/temp/xfce4-panel'

And I should note that the gtk/gdk libs are being passed to libtool.
