Seems like you are not linking against libintl. Where did you get your
gtk/glib from?
In my glib-2.0.pc (for cross compiling on LInux) linking against
libintl is activated by the line:
------
Libs: -L${libdir} -lglib-2.0 -lintl
-----
Does your glib-2.0.pc file have  that line?

Did you download gettext runtime [1] and development files [2] from [3]?

Or do you have MinGW gettext [4] and MinGW libiconv [5] installed?
