You can use  http://code.google.com/p/gtk-perl-compiler/ as a starting point.
It uses the Windows build from http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32,
e.g. Gtk and all its dependencies in
gtk+/2.24/gtk+-bundle_2.24.10-20120208_win32.zip

The actual stuff in
http://code.google.com/p/gtk-perl-compiler/downloads/detail?name=gtk-perl-compiler-0.2.0.zip
might be a bit outdated, but the most interesting part is the modpc.pl script.
It shows you how to modify the pkgconfig (*.pc) files contained in the
Win32 binary archives. With these modifications installed
a standard build of the Gtk2 modules from CPAN should succeed

(I actually did this a few weeks back. There were minor issues with some
incompatible DLLs (freetype? can't remember) that had been
installed by other modules.)
