As Alexander said, it's currently only available on Unix and Windows.  gtk+
is a graphical toolset (defines the way buttons, menu etc work) developed
for Unix and later ported (somewhat roughly) to Windows.  I don't know of
any Psion port, and it sounds unlikely to me.  The GPL is just a license,
has nothing to do with platforms.  In essence, it says that if you
distribute the binaries, you must distribute the sources as well.
