Thank you Allin for your wonderful and knowledgeable technical advice,
everything is working now as it should. You are the best. Just ask me anytime
to be a reference for you, and I will do my best, just as you have done for
me.

That's weird! I've never heard of a Linux distribution that also has
precompiled packages for Win32. I will check it out at my earliest
convenience. You mentioned GTK2, but I am hoping it also has (or has switched
over to) GTK3.
I hope this isn't too good to be true. I will be too busy to check fo

Your source code doesn't work, so let's compare environments. I have:
1) Windows7
2) Win32 version of GTK+, version 3.18
3) The pathnam
Note that if you are using fedora (and possibly other Linux distributions)
it comes with lots of win32 packages precompiled. E.g. all you need to do
to get gtk2 and its dependencies is to do:
dnf install mingw32-gtk2
You can then compile your gtk programs for windows through cross
compilation

OK.

So if I don't want to make my on copy of the GTK+ libraries, I must tell
grandma and grandpa to get their own copy of MSYS2 and MXE, and provide make
their own copy of GTK+ for Win32. Wouldn't that be easy and fun?

By default MXE links statically. So you don't have any dll to bundle with
