Ok - I've done all of that.
Where did you get libxml-2 from ? I've already got it, but it's a static build I've built myself, and the fact that it's static might cause problems later on. Also, for this exercise, it's probably best that I use the same binaries as you.

I have run 'perl Makefile.PL', and it all went fine for me once the PKG_CONFIG_PATH variable was set correctly.
Of course, MakeMaker claims that the following libraries can't be found: 
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lGlib
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lGtk2
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lCairo
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lgtk-win32-2.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lgdk-win32-2.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -latk-1.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lgio-2.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lpangowin32-1.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lgdi32
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lpangocairo-1.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lpango-1.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lcairo
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lgobject-2.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lgmodule-2.0
Note (probably harmless): No library found for -lgthread-2.0

so 'dmake' soon fails with lots of undefined references. But note that there's no mention of not having found libxml-2.0 and libglade-2.0. Not yet sure what's happening there.

I refuse to install anything into a path that contains white space, so I installed Gtk+ into C:\Gtk+. But I don't yet know if that explains why you get the error, and I don't. My libglade-2.0.pc looks like: 
prefix=c:/libglade
exec_prefix=${prefix}
libdir=${exec_prefix}/lib
includedir=${prefix}/include

# so people can do "pkg-config --variable moduledir libglade-2.0"
# (which is broken - users can now use the LIBGLADE_MODULE_PATH
# environment variable
moduledir=${libdir}/libglade/2.0

Name: Libglade
Description: a library for dynamically loading GLADE interface files
Version: 2.6.4
Requires: gtk+-2.0 libxml-2.0
Libs: -L${libdir} -lglade-2.0
Cflags: -I${includedir}/libglade-2.0

May be you can spot something there that accounts for the failure you're getting, though $prefix doesn't look right to me (C:/libglade doesn't even exist) ... something else to think about.

I'll keep digging. In the meantime, if you can fill me in with that libxml-2 info I asked for above, that might help later on.

Cheers,
Rob
