Great! I'm looking at your branch. You can find mine here:
https://github.com/Eksel/buildroot/tree/libgtk3
(warning, WIP, there are ugly commits and there will be some rebase soon
;-) ).

Apparently we did several things differently, like how to handle the
host-libgtk3 build (I just adapted the patch from libgtk2).

Well, I didn't find (yet) the at-spi2-core dependency, so I don't have
this problem for now. I'm still resolving some configure errors.
It's a bit weird, there is no references to at-spi2-* neither in the
documentation nor in the configure.

Best regards,
