Hello Will,
I also encountered the same problem with sunfreeware.com's libgtk and
libgdk. The reason for the problem is that all FUNC symbols in the libraries
are tagged as LOCL instead of GLOB. This is probably due to a mistake when
the libs were built. I've sent an email to the maintainer of sunfreeware.com
site to tell him about the problem.
By now, the solution is to dowload the source and rebuild the libs.
Regards,
