If my Linux experience is any guide, PATH doesn't have anything to do
with shared libraries. You either need to install shared libraries in a
standard location that your OS already looks in, or configure your
dynamic linker to know about the nonstandard place where you have your
GTK libraries installed.

When I went to the website above, I saw "gtk+2" on the list of Vim's
runtime dependencies. When I followed the link to that package, I see
that the standard HP porting package of gtk+2 installs in /usr/local,
not /opt, which is why I think your install of GTK is in a nonstandard
place.

I'd suggest getting your sysadmin to install gtk+2 from the page above,
and check that all the other runtime dependencies are installed while
they're at it.
