ARM Cross Compile GLib 2.33.10, linker error

I'm a newbie and i'm working on Raspberry Pi. I've an issue with GLIB 2.33.10 cross compilation. I've downloaded sources from site and all dependencies (zlib, ffi); dependencies have been built for ARM well (tested on Raspberry). I'm currently using the arm-bcm2708hardfp-linux-gnueabi toolchain.

My configure command line is the following:

$ ZLIB_CFLAGS=-I/home/myuser/cross_lib/include/libzlib \
ZLIB_LIBS="-L/home/myuser/cross_lib/lib/libzlib/raspberry -lz" \
LDFLAGS="-L/home/myuser/cross_lib/libffi/lib -lffi -L/home/myuser/cross_lib/lib/libzlib/raspberry -lz" 
LIBFFI_CFLAGS=-I/home/myuser/cross_lib/libffi/lib/libffi-3.0.11/include \
LIBFFI_LIBS="-L/home/myuser/cross_lib/libffi/lib -lffi" \
./configure --host=arm-bcm2708hardfp-linux-gnueabi glib_cv_stack_grows=yes \
glib_cv_uscore=yes ac_cv_func_posix_getpwuid_r=no \
ac_cv_func_posix_getgrgid_r=no --with-libiconv=no --without-pcre \
--enable-gtk-doc-html=no --enable-xattr=no --prefix=/home/cross_lib/glib23

as you can see i've disabled iconv and pcre (it is only a test build); configure script is ok (it seems to be ok...). when starting building process, it goes on for a while (compile a lot of code) and then stucks in the linking stage:

/opt/tools/arm-bcm2708/arm-bcm2708hardfp-linux-gnueabi/bin/../lib/gcc/arm-bcm2708hardfp-linux gnueabi/4.7.1/../../../../arm-bcm2708hardfp-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld: warning: libgthread-2.0.so.0, needed by ../gobject/.libs/libgobject-2.0.so, not found (try using -rpath or -rpath-link)

it looks like a strange error for me it can't find its own libraries...but i'm not an expert...anyone can help me? thanks in advice and excuse me for my bad english

Building on Anon's answer, here's the section from my DOckerfile. The trick is making, letting it fail, and making again with a flag:

RUN printf "glib_cv_stack_grows=no\nglib_cv_uscore=no\n" > mips.cache
RUN ZLIB_CFLAGS="-I${PREFIX}/include" \
    ZLIB_LIBS="-L${PREFIX}/lib/ -lz" \
    LIBFFI_CFLAGS="-I${PREFIX}/include/" \
    LIBFFI_LIBS="-L${PREFIX}/lib/ -lffi" \
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$PWD/gmodule/.libs -lgmodule-2.0" \
    LD=mips-linux-gnu-ld \
    AR=mips-linux-gnu-ar \
    ./autogen.sh --host=mips-linux-gnu --prefix=$PREFIX \
    --disable-man --disable-libmount --disable-largefile --disable-fam \
    --disable-xattr --disable-libelf --with-pcre=internal --disable-static \
    --cache-file=mips.cache
RUN make -j 8; exit 0 && \
    make LDFLAGS="-rpath $PWD/gmodule/.libs" -j 8 && \
    make install

just add -lgmodule-2.0 in LDFLAGS at the end

This worked for me with glib 2.36.4:

$ make LDFLAGS="-rpath $PWD/gmodule/.libs"
