Thanks, I was able to convert it finally. There may be a problem
in libglade-convert, though. Without the --verbose option, it writes
the converted .glade xml into the terminal without any errors.
However, when I tried to redirect it into a file, the file contained
almost only the Glade xml header and I got these errors:

The workaround was to increase the number of lines stored in memory
in gnome-terminal to 50000 and run libglade-convert without redirection.
Then cut-and-paste the 37000+ lines into an editor. :-)
