I found a related message, http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-app-devel-list/2007-September/msg00190.html in which Tor Lillqvist says, "In 2.12.0 I built in the loaders into the gdk-pixbuf library. There are no separate loader dlls. This has the benefit that there are less files in the gtk+ distribution, and there is one less thing that might go wrong, as the built-in loaders don't need to be listed in a gdk-pixbuf.loaders file. But ... those who use gdk-pixbuf but not for jpeg or tiff images, have earlier managed without the jpeg and tiff dlls... "If I get more complaints like yours, I guess I will have to revert this, and build the loaders separately again." Could I put in a vote for building the loader dlls separately, as before, please? I'm sure I'm not the only one wanting to offer a minimal stand-alone GTK installation to accompany my app. It's not a very big deal -- but is a bit of a pain -- to have to include redundant DLLs in such a package.
