I am certain there were glib sources in Symbian SDK (9.2 - S60 3rd edition,
IIRC), so glib does work there.

Now, after googling, I've found this:

http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2009-May/msg00115.html

and this:

http://library.forum.nokia.com/index.jsp?topic=/S60_5th_Edition_Cpp_Developers_Library/GUID-35228542-8C95-4849-A73F-2B4F082F0C44/sdk/doc_source/guide/EssentialIdioms/StaticData.html

In short: there were patches to remove using global static data from
glib, but were rejected. Libraries with such data will run on the
device, but cause problems on the emulator. So yes, symbian glib ports
should be possible, my mistake ;)

best regards,
