That doesn't seem to be the problem. I look at
mixgtk_gen_handlers.h and see the declarations there.

I see the declarations there in mixgtk_gen_handlers.h.

#ifndef MIXGTK_GEN_HANDLERS_H
#define MIXGTK_GEN_HANDLERS_H

#include <gtk/gtk.h>

extern void
on_main_window_destroy (GtkWidget *w, gpointer data);

extern void
on_file_open_activate (GtkWidget *w, gpointer data);

(...)

#endif /* MIXGTK_GEN_HANDLERS_H */

Am I looking in the wrong place?

I tried that too. 

./configure --prefix=/tmp
make 
make install

Same problem.

Agreed. I think I'm getting used to this. :-) I wrote to the
maintainer, waiting on a feedback now. Thank you, jao.
