Configure uses the magic of pkg-config to find the location:

$ pkg-config glib-2.0 --cflags
-I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib/glib-2.0/include

If xchat can't find your Glib2, I suspect ANY gtk2 app won't find it. This is
because it uses the standard macro to detect it:

AM_PATH_GLIB_2_0(2.0.3, glib=yes, glib=no)
if test "$glib" = no; then
	AC_MSG_ERROR("Cannot find glib")
fi

Have a look at "config.log", it might give you some more clues.
