Is there a portable C++ GUI library though?

Do you mean a C++ bindings for libui?

If yes, then you can check these two [1][2].

Qt is the most portable GUI library. It can run on bare metal.

Except it doesn't run native controls, at least so far as I'm aware.

Well, it's not the prettiest Mac application, but it works great!

Not really a great example, as much as I love VLC.

well, yes, because it runs on platforms that don't have any kind of "native" controls. Besides, in KDE/Lumina/LXQt, Jolla phone, LG WebOS, or AsteroidOS (currently on the front page just above this!) and many automotive environments & medical devices, it is the native UI system.
