Things which prevent to build branch gtk-xt build for target WIN32 when 
cross compiling on Linux using minGW:

1) These types were not defined (very easy to correct):

   Dimension
   Position
   Pixel

2) These macros were not defined (very easy to correct):

   True
   False

3) These signals do not exist:

   SIGPIPE
   SIGUSR1
   SIGALRM
   SIGKILL

4) These include files do not exist:

   <pwd.h>
   <sys/ioctl.h>

5) These functions/system calls do not exist:

   getpwuid (declered in missing pwd.h)
   getpwnam (declared in missing pwd.h)
   ConsoleCreate (declared as extern void ConsoleCreate(); in backend.c)
   strndup (easy to implement/replace)
   flock
   pipe
   fork
   nice
   alarm
   wait
   kill
