It might be due to non-working visibility.
It is not sometimes fully supported in cross compiling.
Probably simply (native) rebuild of binutils and/or gcc-4.0 should suffice.

Prototype is "_g_charset_get_aliases () G_GNUC_INTERNAL;"

Expansion is either
#define G_GNUC_INTERNAL __attribute__((visibility("hidden")))
or
#define G_GNUC_INTERNAL

Could you, please, check configure log for 
checking for GNUC visibility attribute... yes
