Thanks very much Gerrit. That was indeed the problem. I installed glib2-devel and atk-devel, rebuilt, and voila - I have a working gvim !!!

In your cygcheck I see that you don't have glib2-devel installed. Isn't this needed too to build GTK applications (and probably also atk-devel)? Evtl. you're linking against some other glib / atk libraries than the recently released cygwin packages? Gerrit -- =^..^=
