There is huge difference, as glibc is the GNU libc which is the C
runtime environment. But this has mostly no relevance on Windows as you
use Windows' C runtime library usually. Just forget about it.
We are here only talking about "GLib" which is a supporting library of
GTK.

Sorry, the instructions were old and not appropriate anymore. You need
at least GTK and Glib 2.8.x for Geany 0.16, I updated the website as
mentioned in my other post in this thread. Sorry again.

Not missing but outdated.
I suggest to delete your libs dir completely, download
http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/binaries/win32/gtk+/2.16/gtk+-bundle_2.16.1-20090419_win32.zip,
extract its contents into c:\libs and try again compiling. This should
work *crossing-fingers*.

Enrico
