I don't know any official ways, but I've mad a little script (very
hackish for now, but works quote well though) that extracts glib symbols
from C sources and check them against the version in the docs.

You can fetch them:
http://ban.free-h.net/progs/var/check_glib_dep.sh
http://ban.free-h.net/progs/var/gtkdoc-html-get-since.py

check_glib_dep.sh is the script to launch, and it expects
gtkdoc-html-get-since.py to be in ~/bin. You can of course tune as you want.
