Built pango 1.8.1 multilib a while back

First issue is gonna be all the foo-config files under /usr/bin.

Unless you kept both 32bit and 64bit versions of these files around
(such as freetype-config, glib-config ) you have all manner of fun as
these files are generally run by configure to determine cflags, ldflags
to set.
I generally keep both versions of all *-config files and use a wrapper
to select the correct one.

As for libtool silliness in pulling in the wrong .la file, I generally
only see that happening when building 64bit when I have 32bit libs
around. 

Easiest way to avoid that issue is to pass LDFLAGS="-L/lib
-L/usr/lib" ( or -L/lib64 -L/usr/lib64 for 64bit) during configure so
libtool processes those directories for .la files first.
Note however I did not find the above LDFLAGS necessary for pango...

HTH some
