Couldnt you use cygnome team gtk+ packages instead ? http://cygnome.sf.net
cygnome.sf.net is for GNOME 1.x, and cygnome2.sf.net is still under construction (there're only some souce patches for GNOME 2.2.1)
Here is the 'gtk2 on cygwin': http://web.sfc.keio.ac.jp/~s01397ms/cygwin/index.html.en There are both Win32 GUI and X11 GUI version of gtk2 ported cygwin.
I'm trying to compile the gtk+ library (2.x) in my cygwin+xfree subsystem under Windows XP Home Edition.
First of all, I have to compile GLIBs, so I downloaded it, launched ./configure, then "make".
The compilation is successful, but during the linking phase, I get linking errors.
Make sure you install the latest libtool-devel, then do the following after ./configure, $ mv libtool libtool.old $ cp /usr/autotool/devel/bin/libtool libtool then continue to perform make.
When linking DLLs, you need to add '-no-undefined' to LDFLAGS, and make sure appropriate libraries has been included in LIBADD (e.g: you need to add libgdk_pixbuf-2.0.la to LIBADD when linking libgdk_pixbuf_xlib.
Anyway, I recommend the prebuilt ones provided on the URL above.
