I think I know what your problem is. I had a similar difficulty a
couple of weeks ago when I first started messing with Gtk seriously.
It turns out that the Makefile on the web page is not quite right. I
sent the fix below to the web page maintainer, but didn't hear back,
so here it again is for anyone interested:

This is in regard to the helloworld Makefile on the Gtk documentation
web page.
The main change I made was to make sure that the .o file is handed to
the linker before the rest of the libraries. Some versions (newer
ones under Linux) have problems otherwise. I also added the GTK_BASE
variable which makes changing the install dir a little easier.
Here's the whole thing if you're interested.
GTK_BASE=/usr/local/gtk+
GTK_INCLUDE = -I${GTK_BASE}/include
GTK_LIB = -L${GTK_BASE}/lib
X11_LIB = -L/usr/X11R6/lib
CC = gcc -g -Wall
CFLAGS = $(GTK_INCLUDE)
LDFLAGS = $(GTK_LIB) $(X11_LIB)
LOADLIBES = -lgtk -lgdk -lglib -lX11 -lXext -lm
OBJS = helloworld.o
helloworld: $(OBJS)
# $(CC) $(GTK_LIB) $(X11_LIB) $(OBJS) -o helloworld $(LDFLAGS)
clean:
rm -f *.o *~ helloworld
