Gtk+ is already ported to Win32 and is available from
http://www.dropline.net/gtk.

I have heard that it is possible to compile the GNOME libraries on
Windows, it's a very nontrivial process, and I think that if you really
want a cross-platform Gtk+ application you should to stick to pure Gtk+.

I am currently working on a Win32 binary distribution of Gtk2-Perl, with
the assistance of muppet. It'll be ready Real Soon Now (honest).
