Thanks Kjell,

The most recent stable version I could find on the gtkmm web site was 
2.28.2  I installed it onto a separate drive so I could experiment with it.

However, that version of gmmproc doesn't seem to understand Windows 
paths.  If I use forward slashes - e.g.

        -I D:/Temp/glibmm-2.28.2/glib/src

it gives me the error:- "-ID is not recognized as an internal or 
external command".

OTOH if I use backslashes and supply an absolute path - e.g.

        -I D:\Temp\glibmm-2.28.2\glib\src

I get this message:- "The file name, volume name or directory name 
syntax is incorrect".

Finally, if I supply backslashes with a relative path I get the error:- 
"The system cannot find the path specified".

So for the time being, it looks like I'll just have to build gtkmm from 
a tarball.  Building from Git sources doesn't seem to be possible for 
now  :-(
