here's the results when i run something like that, to be honest don't
know how it would work/not complain, maybe something else is going on
with the section of code where it sits:

$ perl
use Glib;
Glib->idle_add (sub { 1; });
Can't locate auto/Glib/idle_add.al in @INC (@INC contains:
/home/rmcfarla/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi
...
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0 .) at
- line 2

the Glib::Timeout->add (~200, sub {} ); is the way to go regardless.
