No, it's not...

I think some of it is inherent in the GCC stuff.  Others, just the general 
build environment.

I've tried compiling some other gnu stuff under mingw, with varying success. 
(Meaning much of it didn't build, aborted, gave stack dumps, etc. etc.)

Okay, I didn't know that.  (Or I forgot about it.)  That means I was running 
SDL.

(That also means that even if it's ends up running in SDL mode, it still 
wants all those GTK libraries available.  If it isn't using GTK, then it 
shouldn't need them.)

Using that option now, I'm getting an error when I try to run qemu.

***
Incompatable build!  The code using GTK+ thinks GtkBox is of different size 
than it actually is in this build of GTK+.

On Windows, this probably means that you have compiled your code with gcc 
without the -fnative-struct (or -mms-bitfileds) switch, or that you are 
using an unsupported compiler.

No idea what it really means.  Other than what it actually says.
