What happens if you run "pkg-config --cflags gtk+-2.0"?

We just cross-compile libotr as described in the INSTALL file:

 ./configure --with-pic --build=`./config.guess` --host=i586-mingw32msvc \
         --prefix=/usr/i586-mingw32msvc
 make
 make install

Then cross-compile pidgin-otr with:

 make -f Makefile.mingw
