It did not work on the version that came with Ubuntu 7.10 either.
So in the end I wrote:

    if ($about->can('set_program_name')) {
        $about->set_program_name($title); # preferred call in newer
versions of Gtk2
    } else {
       $about->set_name($title);
    }

but doing so for every depecated method is, well I don't know which method are
deprecated when so I will do only when I encounter something like this.
