At one point I had this problem due to hsc2hs attempting to build 64-bit.
 What happens if you try running:

cabal install gtk --global --hsc2hs-flags=--cflags=-m32

(I think that's the incantation I used).

Apologies for not remembering more details, but I'm strongly suspicious that
the issue lies in hsc2hs.
