I was able to build the gtk version of xboard for target mingw

To do so I needed to replace some missing functions/system calls with
do-nothing-stubs.

Status:
- I can more or less see and use the different windows and menus.
- I have no pieces because the version of GTK+ for Windows I can
download from http://live.gnome.org/GTK+/Win32 is built without support
for svg-files. I seems I have to built gtk myself to get svg-support.
- I cannot start any engines due fork() and other system calls not working.

Looked some more at it and found that svg-support can be enabled by adding and registering a svg pixbuf-loader dll which I did.

I think that I can get the GTK+ XBboard for Windows to actually work by inserting some Windows specific code from Winboard a few places.
