Nice to see your work on gtkmm for WIN32. But I have a question regarding 
Visual Studio 2003, what's the reason why it can't be supported by gtkmm 
2.8? And I think gtkmm 2.8 don't install in parallel with gtkmm 2.6. If so 
there is a problem if you have a VS2003 compiled app against gtkmm 2.6 and 
you want to install another app, compiled with VS2005 against gtkmm 2.8. 
If the installer update gtkmm to 2.8 the installed application that use 
gtkmm 2.6 will break.

For gtk+ there is no problem, I successfully run gtk+ 2.8 with gtkmm 2.6.
