You have two versions of glib and gtk+ (and probably other libraries such as pango, cairo and atk) installed on your system and the old version, presumably in the /usr prefix, is being picked up by the dynamic loader instead of the one you have placed in the /usr/local prefix. The best thing is not to go down this route at all, and to install your updated libraries by building them as RHEL packages which replace your existing ones. If however you insist on having two different versions of the same libraries installed on your system you might want to google for the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environmental variable.
