You might be right.  I have a test system running FC3 has glib2-2.4.8
and I don't see the function there.

  $ objdump -T libglib-2.0.so | grep g_assert
  $

I have another FC3 system with newer libraries including glib-2.6.0 and
I do see the function there.

  $ objdump -T libglib-2.0.so | grep g_assert
  00594573 g    DF .text  00000077  Base        g_assert_warning
  $

I haven't tried to compile on the first system, only the second.  Is
anyone who is able to compile g2 using glib2-2.4.x?

Bzzt.  Sorry, wrong answer.  This library is required for gnucash 1.8.
Glib1 and 2 were designed so they could both be installed at the same
time.
