Re: Strange display problem with gtk-win32 and VC++

Actually, that is not true. For instance, the ms-windows theme engine
is now effectively maintained once again and compiles and maybe even
works in gtk+ master. And for bulding the GTK+ stack for Windows (32-
and 64-bit), I very much plan to stop doing it myself "manually"
eventually, and instead just make use of the great work done by my
colleague Fridrich Åtrba who has set up cross-compilation of a lot of
stuff (including the GTK+ stack) in the openSUSE Build Service (OBS).
The Windows binaries etc in OBS are very usable already, the only
slight problem is that they are found inside "noarch" RPM archives.
(But at least 7zip handles RPM archives fine, I am told. For instance,
the GIMP installer uses GTK+ stack binaries from OBS.

Also, there is a person actively submitting patches for the Visual
Studio project files. (So if you are trying to use those with a
current GLib or GTK+, please check bugzilla for ones that actually
work...)  I definitely would like him to get a GNOME git account so
that he can do that directly. So if somebody reading this can make
that happen quicker, please do...  (Especially as I have been very
lazy in applying those patches...)
