I'll answer my own question here: yes, gvim with ctags will work.

   http://linuxdocs.org/HOWTOs/Vim-HOWTO-6.html

I'm quite surprised.

So far it doesn't seem to work as well as Anjuta's.

Do you know of a way to make it so that of the definition is in a file 
different than the current on it opens the file and jumps to the 
definition in a new tab?

Actually, I'll answer my own question to that one as well. Yes you can 
by adding a def to your .vimrc:

Maybe gvim and I will remain friends for longer than I thought...
