Something in your build or chain of dependencies is using
-DG_DISABLE_SINGLE_INCLUDES, which should not be done if you still
depend on GTK+ 2.10. If you figure out where it happens and remove
it, everything should build just fine :)

That's because PyGTK only supports GTK+ 2.X. Support for GTK+ 3.X
is provided by PyGObject (if it is built with gobject-introspection
support).
