I still need it for some older stuff.  Here's what's in my build:

   Apply the patch 
https://linuxfromscratch.org/patches/downloads/gtk+/gtk+-2.24.33-consolidated_fixes-1.patch

   sed -e 's#l \(gtk-.*\).sgml#& -o \1#' -i docs/{faq,tutorial}/Makefile.in

   CC="gcc -std=gnu17" ./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc
