Not sure that will that work on Win32:
1) on Cygwin, shared libraries use the 'cyg' prefix;
2) on both Cygwin and MinGW, the soname version number is part of the 
dll name (i.e. what on linux would be libgnomecanvas-2.so.0 is on Win32 
{cyg|lib}gnomecanvas-2-0.dll)

But why wouldn't it be sufficient just to push a new version (which 
you'll have to do either way) without the custom boxed wrapper and 
require libgnomecanvas-2 >= 2.12.0?
