Gtk::GLArea help, examples?

[<rkh gene COM>]

Cheers-

I'm having a boatload of trouble getting Gtk::GLArea to work with perl.
Does anybody have example code?

This is a i686-linux-2.4 system with:
Mesa 3.5 (compiled)
perl 5.6.1 (compiled)
gtk+-1.2.10-ximian.10
gtkglarea-1.2.2-5
Gtk-Perl-0.7008-ximian.1

I've compiled the Gtk::GLArea C examples, so I know that the libraries are
installed and working.

The symptom is that when I do
  my $glarea = new Gtk::GLArea()
I get
  failed to return mandatory object of type Gtk::GLArea at ...

I've tried passing various attributes as constants from use
Gtk::GLArea::Constants as both arrays (à la the C examples) and hash-value
pairs (punting).

Pointers and code snippets would be appreciated.
