The differences between the official gimp for windows by Tor and the wingimp
project one are mainly:
- Tor's is up to date (it is a 1.2.4pre version) while the wingimp CD contains
1.2.2
- Tor's has to be downloaded, the other one is provided on a CD (although
Tor's build may be found in some magazines' CD)
- wingimp CD contains additional other stuff, like cliparts, tutorials,
filters...
- wingimp is Free but not free, Tor's is both free and Free.

Either download the source of gimp for windows at Tor's site, or contact the
people in charge with Wingimp project. He has the right not to put the source
available on the web site. He has the right to charge you for the price of the
medium (CD) he will send you the sources, and the shipping.

I think there are web sites about macgimp:
http://macgimp.org/
http://www.macgimp.com
MacGimp is based on fink, I think:
http://fink.sourceforge.net/
http://fink.sourceforge.net/pdb/package.php/gimp
