Hmmm, 
   The GModule code is used to lookup the autoconnected symbols,
so this is just a shot in the dark, but is there some special magic you
have to do under MSVC++ to get those symbols exported ?

Some wierd magic that might look kindof like this:

__declspec(dllexport) gint
on_button_press_event (GtkWidget *widget, 
                                            GtkEventButton *event, 
                                            gpointer user_data)
{
    /* ... */
    return TRUE;
}

I never touched MS platforms so this is really a shot in the dark, I just 
know that in glade-3 we use that __dllspec() magic to lookup functions
in the loaded plugins.

Cheers,
                                                        -Tristan
