Hi,

The Cgu::WinBase class is compiled into the library rather than being
templated into a header file only, so you do need the accompanying
library binary, which could be an archive (*.a file) or a dynamically
linked shared library (*.so file).

I do not know how the Sabayon distribution organises its packages I am
afraid, but I should be surprised if the library binaries were not
included. Do you have a libcxx-gtk-utils* files appearing in /usr/lib?
If you do, possibly your own project has not incorporated the result of
'pkg-config --libs' into its linker list.  What build system are you
using?
