struct _GMutex (aka GMutex) is an opaque type, i.e. you can use it as long
as its size or structure is not needed by the compiler, so you can have
pointers to such objects, but thats pretty much all you can do, but
happily also all you need to do. 

What are your problems then (doesn't gtk+ compile?), This should'nt be one
actually.

Bye, Sebastian
