Sorry, I shouldn't have dashed off an answer like that.

AFAIK, Perl/Gtk will, the file Gtk.xs has this definition:
-------------
gdk_pixmap_colormap_create_from_xpm (Class, window, colormap, 
transparent_color, filename)
        SV *    Class
        Gtk::Gdk::Window_OrNULL window
        Gtk::Gdk::Colormap_OrNULL       colormap
        Gtk::Gdk::Color_OrNULL  transparent_color
        char *  filename
        PPCODE:
--------------
which allows, I think, undef for a window, colormap and transparent_color.
