Please show the full config.log file of the "configure" run without
the --with-x-toolkit=gtk option, which decides to build without GTK.

FWIW, there was no change in the configure.ac file between Emacs 29.1
and 29.1.90, so it's hard to look for the culprit without some hint,
which the config.log file should provide.

It is also possible that the change is not due to Emacs, but to some
recent change in your system's configuration.  If you configure Emacs
29.1 with your current system, does it still produce a GTK build?

Thanks.
