Yes, that's a known problem.  Gregory McLean has already solved this
in the GNOME CVS repo.  I'll look thru his changes and then release
guile-gtk-0.15 which will work with gtk-1.2 (but not with 1.1).

I think this is not a 1.2 problem.  Looks like you have a messed up
automake/gtk installation.  Did you install the two packages with the
same prefix?  If not, you might want to

  % cp <pfx-of-gtk>/share/aclocal/gtk.m4 <pfx-of-automake>/share/aclocal

or find a more elegant solution to make aclocal find the file gtk.m4
