  OK, so gb.pdf is broken for poppler 0.5 .x, but I can also report that 
although YUM said that it installed the devel packages for poppler, it seems 
it did not install everything required. Here's what I found.
   The only entry under usr/include/poppler was /glib and under that directory 
there were 6 files 

poppler-action.h
poppler-attachment.h
poppler-document.h
poppler-enums.h
poppler.h
poppler-page.h

 No wonder make was complaining about missing files! To fix this I downloaded 
the latest stable tarball source (V0.4.5) of poppler and ran configure make 
install. Then I renamed the old /usr/include/poppler 
to /usr/include/poppler_OLD, copied the poppler folder 
from 'Source/poppler-0.4.5' to '/usr/include', and then copied the folders

forfi
glib
goo
qt
qt4
splash

 from 'Source/poppler-0.4.5' to /usr/include/poppler'. Ran make and make 
install and everything now seems to be working, i.e. gambas shows gb.pdf as 
an available component (but I haven't yet tested it). 
  So although gb.pdf may be broken for poppler 0.5.x,  the devel package that 
YUM installs on FC5 is so incomplete that you wouldn't be able to make gb.pdf 
even if it was not broken for poppler 0.5.x.
