Ok, I found your previous post a little bit confusing so maybe I got something wrong. Anyway, I seem to have it working now. What I did was to install gtk+ and gtkmm into c:\mingw instead of c:\msys and that appearantly did the trick. Also I had to copy libxml-2.0.pc from my linux system to my win32 system. Anyway, I'm up and running and can move on to coding. I will try to summarize my experience in some kind of tutorial that I will post to the mailinglist as soon as I have verfied that it works (on a clean system).
