Looking at the errors you are trying to create a GnomeProgram (and I
assume your GladeXML file contains GNOME widgets) so you will need to
initialise GNOME.  Something like:

        GnomeProgram *program;

        program = gnome_program_init (PACKAGE, VERSION,
                                LIBGNOMEUI_MODULE,
                                argc, argv,
                                GNOME_PARAM_NONE);

Have a look at the docs:

http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/libgnome/libgnome-gnome-program.html

You don't need this anymore, but having will not cause any harm.

If you need more help then you'll have to supply more information.
