I would use:

        gcc -c hello.c `pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0`

I would use:

        gcc -o hello hello.o `pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0`

This sounds to me like a DLL mismatch.  I think Ive had this before but only
when I have compiled the application against version 'a' and downloaded
version 'b' and it complains when I try to run it (against the new
libraries) without recompiling.
