Thanks Ignacio.  That looks like a useful resource and I should maybe 
consider it.  For our purposes we have two slightly unusual requirements:-

      1)  For historical reasons we need to build with VC8.  That's 
rarely supported now in gtk+ libs.

      2)  We build 3 targets, namely:-

            a)  Full Debug version
            b)  Full Release version
            c)  Debuggable Release version

It might seem like a luxury to have a debuggable Release build - but in 
fact it can be immensely useful.

Are the nice-software libs synced to their "official" libraries (i.e. if 
there's a change upstream, does it get imported into the nice-software 
version?)

My repos get updated weekly and are also on github:-

Looks like we're basically doing the same thing !!
