Thank you. I found http://www.tecgraf.puc-rio.br/iup/ with small footprint too.

+1  A: 

try cegui. It was designed for game guis, which have to be light (for console games). I've never tried fltk. It may be more suitable.

+1  A: 

The Tk from Tcl/Tk is well known of its small memory footprint. Details in Memory Footprint Comparisons on Tcl/Tk Wiki. Both, Tcl and Tk, are extremely simple to use with C++/Tcl and C++/Tk libraries. They were inspired by Boost.Python
