If you don't tell us how "it failed", we cannot fix it.

Yes but a clean build with mingw even with WPF should be possible. If
new GTK# is not a goal at least make it compile on win32/win64 with
mingw. I tried the latest and failed. Cygwin cross-compiles used to work
better for me, though it has some bugs.

    We are not likely going to move to Gtk# 3 any time soon.

    We have evolved the plan over the years, but this is the current plan:

      * We are going to be refactoring Xamarin Studio along engine vs UI
        components, to allow us to build native UIs for each component
        (WPF on Windows, Cocoa on Mac, Gtk# on Linux).

      * We typically start with a Gtk# UI, because that one already
        works everywhere, so we start with this, and we then provide the
        per-platform UIs.

    Replacing Gtk# 2 with 3 is not really a goal.  They change the API,
    and are about to change it again with 4.

    When we move everything over to this split UI system, we will take a
    look at whether it is worth upgrading to newer versions of Gtk, but
    for now, version 2 has lots of custom improvements for Mac and
    Windows that have not yet been added to 3.

        It would be even better news if mono finally compiled cleanly
        under mingw-w64 with gtk#3.
