the examples are avaiable in src releases. they're actually only
installed in Gtk2. (i'm going to go through and fix this.) for now you
can find them here:
        http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/gtk2-perl/gtk2-perl-xs/
GladeXML is under the Glade directory.

the only reference to gtk_main_quit i see is this:

        It is worth noting that callbacks you get for free in c such
        as gtk_main_quit will not exist in perl and must always be
        defined, for example:

             sub gtk_main_quit
             {
                   Gtk2->main_quit;
             }

which says that you can't directly call gtk functions like you can in C.
you don't have access to the gtk_main_quit symbol from perl. and you
have to wrap it as above. where'd you see something that says that? i
can't seem to find anything that does. i will admit i'm looking at cvs
HEAD, but i don't think any of the doc has changed.
