The only occurrence of g_type_default_interface_unref() in all of 
gtk2-perl is in the binding for g_object_list_properties(), in 
GObject.xs, compiled in iff compiling against glib >= 2.4.0.

Possible causes for a missing symbol ref here:

1) The Glib module was compiled against >=2.4.x, but is running against 
<2.4.0.  Note that this is for libgobject, not gtk+.
2) libgobject is the right version, but the particular symbol isn't 
exported from the DLL (basically, a buggy .def file)

Since you said you're using gtk-win32-2.4.14, it's rather unlikely that 
it's 1), unless your glade install overwrote something.

If the answer is 2), then try upgrading to gtk+ 2.6...  maybe the 
symbol issue is resolved there.

Failing those, i have no clue.

You're safe -- i don't think we've heard of this one before.  :-)
