Proposed patch

Hi,

When compiling GTK3 using the mingw toolchain then the shared libraries (DLL's) won't be build. This is caused by invalid LDFLAGS. These contain '-luuid'. As the uuid library on mingw is a static library and not an import library libtool will refuse to build a shared library (DLL). To circumvent this issue, the reference to '-luuid' needs to be changed to '-Wl,-luuid'. With this change libtool won't complain anymore and the shared library (DLL) will be generated. Attached patch implements this change.

Please consider applying it
