If you're only interested in the resulting binaries (i.e. you don't
want to develop gtk/cairo for windows), you can just use the script
at:
https://github.com/mkbosmans/download-mingw-rpm
to download and extract the DLLs.

I'd certainly recommend the latest release og Gtk+ v2. The 2.24.10
release has many, many important bugfixes for win32.
