Okay, I'm working on this now. When I tried to build pygtk under 
windows, I got the error message:

* gobject-2.0.pc could not be found, bindings for gobject will not be 
built

I have a feeling I'm doing something very basic wrong, which is not 
surprising, since this is my first package build under Windows. Could 
someone who has a built pygtk under Windows give me a few pointers on 
how to get started? I'm just trying

python setup.py build

right now, and clearly that isn't enough. Thanks in advance.
