Well, it appears the way that the GIMP handles this is to do

	#ifdef G_OS_WIN32

	/* In case we build this as a windowed application */

	#ifdef __GNUC__
	#define _stdcall  __attribute__((stdcall))
	#endif

	int _stdcall
	WinMain (struct HINSTANCE__ *hInstance,
		 struct HINSTANCE__ *hPrevInstance,
		 char               *lpszCmdLine,
		 int                 nCmdShow)
	{
	  return main (__argc, __argv);
	}

	#endif

in "main.c"; I'll try something such as that to see if it works.
