Thanks for this pointer! I did not recognise the 'dependencies'
directory. It would have made my life much, much easier :-)

On Linux, the PATH is system-wide to include one GTK+ runtime. This is
common practice. Why should there be any need to handle this different
on Windows? (I'm not a windows user, so maybe there is a need. I don't
know).

If every application bundles its own copy of the GTK+ stack, the user
will experience problems (beside of the waste of space): themes have to
be configures for each GTK+ applications separately -- if they delivery
themes at all.

This includes at least the uninstataller information. This is common
usage on Windows and AFAIK required by the Winodws Programming Guidlines.

Thanks for this tip. I'm just nor used to tools like objdump.
