The only parts of libglade that benefits from --export-dynamic is 
glade_xml_signal_autoconnect() and the default "custom widget handler" 
(to handle widgets that show up as lots of blue C's in glade).  Both of 
these functions use gmodule to look up functions in the process's global 
symbol table.  If you aren't using either of those, then you don't need 
--export-dynamic.

I'd guess there are a fair number of libglade using apps that don't need 
--export-dynamic.
