Slackware user trying to get gnucash compiled

Hi all, I've been trying to get gnucash complied for some time now (the 
packages I've found online want guppi, and I can't get that compiled either 
nor find a guppi package). Right now I can do the './configure --prefix=/usr 
--disable-guppi' just fine, but I bomb out on the compile. I've tried 
installing glade-2.0.1 from source. First time I tried to compile it couldn't 
find glade.h, so I make a /usr/include/glade directory and dumped all the 
header files from glade-2.0.1/glade/ in there. Right now it looks to me like 
it's looking for GladeXML (I've got the Guppi .40 source and it gives me  
"`GladeXML' undeclared (first use in this function)" among other errors 
compiling). Is this something part of Glade that I somehow managed to not 
compile in? Or is this a version conflict? I've stopped short of installing 
gtk+-1.2 from source, but other than that I don't know what else to try. 
Anyway, here's the output from when things bomb out:

Thanks again.
