Using GTK+ built with the Win32 backend.

I don't know what you mean with "special". Win32 has been an
officially supported backend (windowing system) in GTK+ for many
years. The libraries are no more special than the corresponding ones
for the X11 backend. The source code for both the Win32 and X11
backends are in the same GTK+ source distributions.
