Ok, now that I'm looking again this code, I'm finding lots of bugs.

Whoever wrote it definetively didn't like to handle error conditions
properly (nor to free things) :-(

Anyway, one of the bugs is that it don't convert underscores on
properties names from the glade file to hyphens.  I just can't believe
that none of the test files I tested didn't have any property with a '_'
in its name...

Then, glade3 was expecting to have a packing tag for each children node.
(I've fixed until this point.)

Now, it doesn't handles the case where the packing tag of a box doesn't
has a position property (and "doesn't handles" means "it segfaults").

I've fixed some of the segfaults, but not all of them, so the file still
don't reads.

I will finish it asap.

Cheers,
