Not sure where you are getting your information.  I just built HandBrake
using the mingw tools on Fedora 18 with gtk+ 3
support.  Works spiffy.

Presumably he is getting his information from
http://www.gtk.org/download/win32.php

It is relatively easy to cross-compile a Gtk3 Windows .exe with mingw.

But how do you give users the program? They need the Gtk3
& dependency .DLLs to run it. There is no Gtk3 installer. Do you have your
own installer and distribute the .DLLs that are in the Fedora packages? I'm
curious to know if that works. Also if you could share some details on your
installer I would appreciate it.

Thanks

I realized I didn't answer your question completely.  My "installer" is just a zip file containing the 
directory tree of
everything needed.  I have a simple script that copies everything needed into the directory, then I zip it 
up.  Example
script attached.


Renaming script to prevent stripping by ML.
