Perhaps a "new" method.

  my $f = Glib::ParamFlags->new (['readable']);

Some code below.  It runs, but dunno if I understand the subtleties of
classname to gtype conversion.  (Getting back G_TYPE_FLAGS depends on
your previously posted change too, otherwise Glib::Flags is
"unregistered".)

That's what I broke out as a workaround starting object :-)

  my $empty_events = bless (do{my $zero=0; \$zero}, 'Gtk2::Gdk::EventMask');
