The overarching point is that the OP's code is not supported in win32. It could be said the fact that it deadlocks early on is a feature rather than a bug, as it brings to the early attention of the coder that he/she has got it wrong (although the proximate cause is almost certainly the threading backend changes in glib-2.32). What might be beneficial is for a documentation bug to be posted with respect to the GTK+ FAQ, which does not adequately make the point that the advertised code on which the OP relied is for the X11 backend only. It is not just that it won't work in win32: it won't work in wayland, broadway or quartz either.
