Hi guys. I actually took the configure script from gtk, and made it work 
for gtkextra. I'm not sure all the stuff is in there, though, and I 
haven't tested it on other platforms. It would be nice if people could 
help with the different ports. I will welcome any patches, and success 
stories. Thanks!
