You've got some pre-GNOME-2.16 librar{y/ies} which references 
/usr/X11R6/lib/libpangocairo-1.0.la. Just check which one (I had some 
non-port and had to use grep: 
grep -l /usr/X11R6/lib/libpango `find /usr/X11R6/lib /usr/local/lib -name 
"*.la"`
) and reinstall it. BTW, you can get this error with other libs (GTK2, 
for one) as well.

Hope this helps,
Vladimir
