By default, sane-frontends up to 1.0.11 will build the gimp1.2 plugin
and thus will use GTK 1.2.

You have GTK 2 installed. If you want to build with GTK 2, run
configure --disable-gimp.

This will change in the next version of sane-frontends. It'll default
to GIMP 2.0 and GTK 2. (sane-frontends 1.0.12 will probably be
released after GIMP 2.0 final, unless Henning decides to make a
release sooner)
