GTKmm Windows - Glibmm KeyFile Problem

["John Hobbs" <john velvetcache org>]

Hello all,

I just started working with Gtkmm on Windows a few days ago, and I can't get Glib::Keyfile to work properly.

If the KeyFile doesn't exist, I want to start a config screen and make one.  Problem is, I can't catch anything from load_from_file, it just seems to blow up.

I found a related item, but it doesn't look like it ever resolved:  http://www.nabble.com/Glib::KeyFile-bug--td18043898.html

The Doc's say  "If the file could not be loaded then a FileError or KeyFileError exception is thrown."

But there doesn't seem to be anything to catch. Anyone have something I'm missing?

Below is my build/run output and the source of my test file.  MSYS/MinGW.
