Windows (MinGW) notes: After installing all of the GTK, Glib, (etc) stuff, pkg-config didn't work until I'd set the environment variable:
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/c/MinGW/lib/pkgconfig

$ pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --cflags
  -mms-bitfields -Ic:/MinGW/include/gtk-2.0 -Ic:/MinGW/lib/gtk-2.0/include -Ic:/MinGW/include/atk-1.0 -Ic:/MinGW/include/cairo -Ic:/MinGW/include/pango-1.0 -Ic:/devel/dist/cairo-1.0.4/include/cairo -Ic:/MinGW/include/glib-2.0 -Ic:/MinGW/lib/glib-2.0/include

$ pkg-config gtk+-2.0 --libs
  -Lc:/MinGW/lib -Lc:/devel/target/stable/lib -Lc:/opt/gnuwin32/lib -lgtk-win32-2.0 -lgdk-win32-2.0 -latk-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lpangowin32-1.0 -lgdi32 -lpangocairo-1.0 -lfontconfig -lfreetype -lpango-1.0 -lm -lcairo -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -lglib-2.0 -lintl -liconv

 It's difficult to locate some of the Gnome stuff, pre-compiled for Win32.
 ftp.gnome.org has them, under (i.e.) /platform/2.12/2.12.2/win32/

 This is a local mirror (to me) of that location.
 http://mirror.internode.on.net/pub/gnome/platform/2.12/2.12.2/win32/

I18n notes

 "gettextize" version 0.17 was used to prepare the m4, po and intl directories.

 Strings initially extracted with:

  xgettext -L C -k_ -kN_ -f po/POTFILES.in -o po/salasaga.pot
