Yaakov, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.

As part of my attempt to build unison-gtk2 for Cygwin, I did successfully
build and package lablgtk2 for Cygwin.  It's available through the setup
utility.  So the problem isn't building lablgtk2, but rather an error in
unison-gtk2 that seems to be caused by lablgtk2.  But it's been a while and
I'm afraid I don't remember the details now.
