In the times gtk+ 2.6 I once had both build environments working
and somewhat documented it at: http://hans.breuer.org/gtk/

Especially shortly after a commit of me ;)

Definitely in cvs but outdated for pango/opentype (optional: only used
for Pango/FT2)

As you can see from the UML diagrams at my website there are some more
dependencies below GLib, Pango and Gtk+. These need to be build as
64 bit version as well, but they don't follow the makefile.msc scheme
used for GLib, Pango, Atk, Gtk+, Dia and The Gimp.

Some build description for both variants is in GLib
