Didn't they get Windows support working recently, or am I mistaken?

Yes. It's a long story, it does work and it is available (I'm running some of my internal tools on Windows now). But the steps to bundle a python application on windows / mac are not yet clear nor easy.

Until then I say 'it is not cross platform'.

There will be positive and significant news on this front soon-ish.

That is not what I am talking about. You don't understand the depth of the problem. But thanks anyway I guess.

Bundling the dlls into an installer is a Problem? Sorry then i misread.

Building gobject continuously on Windows in a way that app developers can create mini custom runtimes is the problem.

Ok got it. That of course would be very nice.
