seem get away with one set of header files for both the 32- and 64-bit

I'm not sure how they handle 32-bit vs. 64-bit GLib, given that the 64-bit /usr/local/lib/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h installed on my machine has #defines and typedefs such as
My FC 10 system has multiple copies of that file in different directories:
/usr/lib/glib/include/glibconfig.h
/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h
/usr/lib64/glib/include/glibconfig.h
/usr/lib64/glib-2.0/include/glibconfig.h
OK, so I guess that's why glibconfig.h is under /usr/lib* - to let systems with /usr/lib and /usr/lib64 (or whatever they do to support 32-bit and 64-bit userland) have separate configurations.
However, /usr/local/include/glib-2.0/glib/gtypes.h just includes <glibconfig.h>, so it relies on "pkg-config --cflags" being used, and that prints
-I/usr/local/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/local/lib/glib-2.0/include
I get:
-I/usr/include/glib-1.2 -I/usr/lib64/glib/include
on my machine. Does that mean that pkg-config somehow needs to know whether you're building 32-bit or 64-bit? Are there, for example, two separate GLib (and presumably GTK+) packages, one 32-bit and one 64-bit? What does
pkg-config --list-all | egrep -i glib
print?
That gives:
glib-2.0 GLib - C Utility Library
gthread GThread - Thread support for GLib
gmodule-2.0 GModule - Dynamic module loader for GLib
gmodule-export-2.0 GModule - Dynamic module loader for GLib
gobject-2.0 GObject - GLib Type, Object, Parameter and Signal Library
dbus-glib-1 dbus-glib - GLib integration for the free desktop message bus
gio-2.0 GIO - glib I/O library
glib GLib - C Utility Library
gio-unix-2.0 GIO unix specific APIs - unix specific headers for glib I/O library
gmodule GModule - Dynamic module loader for GLib
gthread-2.0 GThread - Thread support for GLib
libsoup-2.4 libsoup - a glib-based HTTP library
gmodule-no-export-2.0 GModule - Dynamic module loader for GLib
but I do have two pkgconfig files for glib:
/usr/lib/pkgconfig/glib-2.0.pc
/usr/lib64/pkgconfig/glib-2.0.pc
but you couldn't handle the GLIB_SIZEOF_ definitions without #ifdefs. They might either manually, or with a tool that makes "fat" versions of header files given two different versions of the header file for different platforms, do it with #ifdefs, or they might have different include directories for 32-bit and 64-bit. OS X doesn't support different include directories for 32-bit and 64-bit, so that option isn't open to OS X.

Nope - not unless there's some way to tell pkg-config whether you want to build with the 32-bit or 64-bit version of GLib and GTK+ (and any other packages we use).
To get it to build 32-bit I have to do this:
CFLAGS=-m32 PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/lib/pkgconfig ./configure
(Actually, it took a bit more work than that as apparently I didn't have
the 32-bit version of *all* the libraries and development packages I
needed, but a half dozen "yum install"s fixed that.)
