Thanks, Jaime. I gave that a good try. Unfortunately, *every* 2.8.xxx legacy
version of GTK+ that I downloaded there produces either the same error message
in SharpConstruct as before, or a new one:

"SharpConstruct needs the GTK part from the 'glade for windows' project, but you
seem to have the GTK part from the 'GIMP for Windows' project, which won't work.
See http://sharp.3d.sourceforge.net.... (a URL link that no longer works.)"

I went looking for such a thing, but haven't yet found it. The SharpConstruct
download page offers no information or clue to this either.

I'm guessing that the original Linux(?) version of the program must have been
more 'robust' than the later Windows port...that is, all the parts were better
integrated.

Given this impasse, I may *have* to download the latest version of Blender, if I
want the features of SharpConstruct. I don't know, though--Blender has its own
steep learning curve, from what I hear!
