… implementation Win32-GTK implementation was developed in https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=488431 According to my understanding, it was never finished, and nobody uses it. At the same time, its presence routinely confuses me: when I change some build settings for win32, I stumble upon a copy of `make_win32.mak` for win32-gtk, and wonder if I need to change it or not. As per discussion in Bug 488431, the implementation was never finished, and the bug is closed as WONTFIX. Therefore, it would be best to remove it from SWT entirely.
