Re: [packages] gtk+, glib, imlib

Harold,

They do not.  For some reason, when the dll is built, many symbols are not
being exported, even with --export-all-symbols, which causes
glib-genmarshal.exe to not compile due to undefined symbols.  I'm going to
give another shot with the new libtool to see if it is any better
(supposedly it is) so we'll see...

Cheers,
Nicholas
