I maintain http://www.optionexplicit.be/projects/gnome-windows/GTK+3/
which is built from ATK, Pango, GLib, GTK+, GObject-Introspection, etc
master branches. For some modules with highly experimental patches that
have not yet been accepted "upstream" even.

Updated bundles happen from time to time, when something interesting
has changed (and I don't forget to upload it). That said, feel free to 
poke
me if you need some specific update for some of the modules or 
something...

win32 testing is most welcome, but I'd strongly advise against 
distributing
this to end users through an installer (or any other means). There is 
simply
too much that still needs to be done to make it as usable on win32 as 
GTK+2 was
before and we don't want to give GTK+3 a bad name, do we ;)

mvg,
