As libsigc++ 2 don't compile under MSVC 2003 you can't use MSVC 2003 for 
gtkmm 2.4. I got a message that libsigc++ 2 may compile ok under MSVC 2005 
(which I don't looked at it yet).

libsigc++ 1.2 and gtkmm 2.2 compile ok under MSVC 2003.

First run configure and make of msys to generate and compile all files. 
Then you can try to compile with MSVC.
