No, we don't depend in anything other than plain gtk+. I build regularly a windows version with MS Visual C 6. The build processus is not exactly trivial, as we build the part that handles the code specific to gtk+ widgets (glade-gtk.c) as a dll that calls back some functions of the main glade (as for instance, to create a placeholder here and there). As I didn't managed to export the needed functions from glade-3.exe, I put the needed functions in an internal dll, that it's used by glade-3.exe and glade-gtk.dll. So the easiest way to get a w32 build will probably be to just ask me for a msvc project (I have not put it in cvs). It should be quite easy to embed it in your project, however it's still beta quality.
