Type

export CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -mms-bitfields"

in MSys' bash before running ./configure (or simply add it to ~/.bashrc so
you don't have to type it every time).

MSys itself won't, since msys is actually stripped-down Cygwin. It is
possible to cross-compile GTK+ programs from Linux (and it's definitely
faster than under MSys, since bash+gcc are slow as hell on Win32;
apparently, it's also almost easier to set up a cross-compilation
environment in Linux than MSys on Windows for GTK+).

The larger the project or job, the less time there is to do it.
