Hello,

The logic seems to be backwards having the gtk paths depend on the glib
paths.  According to the note at
http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/downloads.html, the newer gtk-1.3
REQUIRES glib 2.x, whereas my result indicates that glib 2.x does NOT imply
any particular version of gtk.

Maybe something like:

If GTK_1_3_OLD is defined, then use the old gtk directory structure.
Otherwise, the newer gtk directory structure is used and an error should be
indicated if GLIB_VERSION is 1.3

I agree. However, old GTK 1.3 versions contain a few bugs, including a GDI Resource Leak. I recommend an update (as discussed on this list some months ago).
