Yes. It comes with GTK 3.8.3. Which is not an official version, but it
works, except for a few bugs.

P.S. It would be great if AdaCore published the scripts they are using to
compile GTK for Windows. Because 3.8 is fairly outdated. People who would
like to design portable GUI will have issues getting it working on both
Windows and Linux.
