No, no! intltool's way is the right way to do it. Glade's way of doing
dates from the pre-libglade days, and isn't too nice. (ie. you need
glade to generate the .h file which rules out hand-tweaked .glade
files).

The .glade.h file should be removed, deleted and forgotten about. That's
the right way to do it.
