Pedro,

You and I should talk. I too have compiled up everything for Win32 (busy 
testing Win64 at the moment). My particular solution is a bit broader as it 
compiles everything needed to get a complete GTK+ solution, from zlib and 
gettext all the way up to GTK+. I also did it using just command files, not 
a make file in sight and absolutely no dependency on any tools other than 
Microsoft provided ones, no MinGW, no Cygwin, nothing. I also verified it 
works both with a hand-crafted MS toolchain as described in 
http://www.syndicateofideas.com/posts/fighting-the-msvcrt-dll-hell and 
using MSVC 2010 (professional edition, not the free one, in case that makes 
a difference). Here is what my solution compiles:

zlib             1.2.5
iconv            1.13.1
gettext          0.18.1.1
libpng           1.5.1
giflib           4.1.6
jpeg             8c
libxml2          2.7.8
libxslt          1.1.26
fontconfig       2.8.0
freetype         2.4.4
expat            2.0.1
pcre             8.12
glib             2.28.3
pixman           0.21.6
cairo            1.10.2
pango            1.28.3
gdk-pixbuf       2.21.1
atk              1.33.6
gtk+             3.0.5
