For my C/C++ app, to avoid these nightmares (compiling on Windows, 
bundling libs and/or create an installer), I cross-compile statically 
using MXE (http://mxe.cc): work on Linux, distribute a single .exe .

It looks like the PyGObject package is not available out-of-the-box, but 
it may be easy to add.
