add in your Makefile the following flags for the compilation (last build 
of msys/mingw): 
 -mno-cygwin -march=pentium  -mms-bitfields -mwindows

if you do not want the "msdos" window, replace -mwindows by -mnowindows

perhaps you should use gtk 2.2 instead of gtk 1.3, if it does not require 
too much work ?
