No, you're not missing something. We've all developed a knee-jerk
response to the subject of discussing X-related issues here. Normally
that's a good thing. :-)
You are specifically not talking about X, though. So, it's perfectly
acceptable to discuss this here.
Just to add to the thread, I assume that if GTK+ can be built using mingw,
it should be pretty easy to build it for native cygwin. Have you tried
just building it with Cygwin's gcc?
