No.  The libgobject-2.0.so library is present at build time, kipi-plugins
just isn't using it (without the aforementioned patch anyway).

Sure there is, that's precisely what my patch does, it uses pkg-config to
detect the presence of gobject-2.0.pc

I'm still stumped how kipi-plugins builds for you (or anyone else), using a
symbol from libgobject-2.0.so without (directly) linking against it. ??? 

(Are you sure your libglib-2.0.la file doesn't mention libgobject-2.0?)
