The GObject stuff is wrapped by the "Glib" Perl module, but it's not a
one-to-one mapping.  g_signal_list_ids is wrapped via

        list = Glib::Type->list_signals ($package)

and g_signal_lookup via

        scalar = $object_or_class_name->signal_query ($name)

See 'perldoc Glib::Type' and 'perldoc Glib::Object'.
