That sounds like a libtool feature.  Did you install the libaries
with "make install"?  Doing so should put the normal *.a (and/or
*.so*) files into ${prefix}/lib, as well as the *.la libtool stubs.
(Libtool needs these for some internal tracking it does to help with all
the different ways shared libraries are handled by different systems.
They're quite small.)

But if you're using win32, then I can't help much beyond that....
Try checking for a GTK or Imlib mailing list, perhaps.
