Read the porting guide on developer.gnome.org/dotplan/ (at least the
parts about GTK), read the Changes in 2.0 section in the reference
manual, read Compiling a GTK App in the 2.0 reference manual, move
your compile over to use 2.0, then try compiling and fix the compiler
errors.

There's a script that comes with libglade called libglade-convert
which will convert your glade project to GTK 2. Then use the glade-2
version of glade.
