By the way there doesn't appear to be a Makefile.PL in the gtk2-perl-xs
directory.

indeed there is not ---- gtk2-perl-xs was once a monolithic package, but it
has been broken into a bunch of in(ter)?dependent packages in the interest of
distribution and dependency maintentance.

there's a Makefile in the toplevel as a convenience for developers, which just
automated version of

  cd Glib && perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=something && make test && make install
  cd Gtk2 && perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=something && make test && make install
  etc

that makefile sets PREFIX to /usr/local, i suggest you choose something like
$HOME/tmp --- and you'll also want to set PERL5LIB in your environment to
avoid having to give -I all over the place.  gtk2-perl-xs/Glib/README explains
that.
