Hello world program crashes in gtkmm

I am trying to get gtkmm working on Windows 7 with MinGW. But, when after I compile the hello world program from the gtkmm-tutorial, the exe just crashes with a segfault.

I've compiled the program with this:

$ g++ helloworld.cc main.cc -o hw `pkg-config --cflags --libs gtkmm-2.4`

Here's what gdb shows:

$ gdb hw.exe

49      objectbase.cc: No such file or directory.

I'm a bit newbie, so I don't know how to get it to work.

I've downloaded gtkmm from here (the 2.22 version) and the g++'s version:

$ g++ -v

ls --disable-shared --disable-sjlj-exceptions --disable-win32-registry --enable-

Thread model: win32
gcc version 4.7.1 (GCC)

Do I need something more? or I'm just doing it wrong?

It seems MinGW made an ABI change with GCC 4.7.0. If your gtkmm was compiled with an earlier GCC, this would cause problems like you are seeing. Try rebuilding gtkmm with the same compiler.
