Gtk+ itself uses it, see gtk/Makefile.am.

However, passing the templates as a bunch of command line
options inside makefile, as Gtk+ does it, is IMO quite ugly.
If you prefer template files, you can have a look at

header file template
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/gwyddion/gwyddion/libgwyddion/gwyddiontypes.h.template?view=markup

C file template
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/gwyddion/gwyddion/libgwyddion/gwyddiontypes.c.template?view=markup

makefile rules to use them (near the bottom)
http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/gwyddion/gwyddion/libgwyddion/Makefile.am?view=markup

for inspiration.

Without the timestamp preservation tricks the rules would be
simply

glib-mkenums --template H-TEMPLATE HEADERS-WITH-ENUMS >ENUMS.h
glib-mkenums --template C-TEMPLATE HEADERS-WITH-ENUMS >ENUMS.c

You can try this with my templates on your .h files to see
how it works.

It should be sufficient to change only two things in the
templates to make them fit your project: #included headers
and namespace prefixes.
