Well, I tried what you said, and on the first part, the:
gcc 'gtk-config --cflags' window.c

it said:

 gcc: gtk-config --cflags: No such file or directory

and dumped me back to prompt...

if I do just 
gtk-config --cflags
it tells me
-I/usr/local/lib/glib/include -I/usr/local/include -I/usr/X11R6/include
and if I do 
gtk-config --libs
it tells me
-L/usr/local/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -lgtk -lgdk -lglib -lXext -lX11 -lm
does that help any?
