 Here are the last few lines from the attempted compilation:
 {{{
 checking for pkg-config... no
 checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.0... no
 *** A new enough version of pkg-config was not found.*** See
 http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/
 *** trying without -lgmodulechecking for pkg-config... no
 checking for GLIB - version >= 2.0.0... no
 *** A new enough version of pkg-config was not found.
 *** See http://www.freedesktop.org/software/pkgconfig/

 *** If you don't have GLIB, you can get it from
 ftp://ftp.gtk.org/pub/glib/
 *** We recommend you get the latest stable GLIB 2 version.
 *** Compile and install it, and make sure pkg-config finds it,
 *** by adding the path where the .pc file is located to PKG_CONFIG_PATH

 configure: error: GLIB is required to build irssi.

 Warning: the following items did not execute (for irssi):
 org.macports.activate org.macports.configure org.macports.build
 org.macports.destroot org.macports.installError: Status 1 encountered
 during processing.
 }}}

 FWIW, running `pkg-config --libs glib` manually (is that right?) says
 {{{
 pkg-config --libs glib
 sh: line 1: glib-config: command not found
 sh: line 1: glib-config: command not found
 sh: line 1: glib-config: command not found
 }}}

 This is strange, because I had got it to build a few days ago...
