Is there some way I can statically link the GTK+ library to the
executable? I seek to avoid the use of runtimes, especially since I
have no idea of how to create installation packages. Anyway, I'm a
big believer that no self-respecting c or c++ application should ever
require any type of external runtimes. That kind of crap is for wimp
languages like c#, java, and vb.
