Thanks very much Gerrit.  That was indeed the problem.  I installed
glib2-devel and atk-devel, rebuilt, and voila - I have a working gvim !!!

In your cygcheck I see that you don't have glib2-devel installed.  Isn't
this needed too to build GTK applications (and probably also atk-devel)?
Evtl. you're linking against some other glib / atk libraries than the
recently released cygwin packages?
