Maintaining the Windows port of the GTKv2 client is difficult. Nicholas
tried to build a Windows version from trunk, with limited success.

No, not that I am aware of.

You've probably noticed that the sources in common/ are built into a
shared library. The intention was to share some code between the several
different versions of the client (X11, SDL, OpenGL, GTKv1, GTKv2). Now,
it seems a little unnecessary (unless someone decides to bring back
another client).
