No need to apologize. In fact, I much prefer not to get personal mail
about GLib and GTK+ on Windows. I prefer to discuss it on the
appropriate mailing list. (I have Cc:ed this reply the the
gtk-devel-list.)

Use the .def file? That's why it's there.

I don't understand you here. Are you building glib statically? What do
you then mean by "export"? You mean how to make those symbols not
visible in the static library? I don't think it is a problem even if
they are visible, as they have the _g_ prefix precisely for that
reason, to avoid the risk of clashing with other symbols in an
application or other libraries linked to it.

Thanks.
