gconf(-mm) is a gnome library. If you want cross-platform portability, you 
should stick to gtk+ (gtkmm) libraries only (+libglade). Personally, I have 
used the standard win32 registry access functions to save my settings on 
win32 (with #ifdefs). It might be interesting to write your own (simple) 
registry class that wraps a small subset of both gconf and the win32 
registry API.
