> Too bad we can't use gtk_builder_add_from_resource()… maybe we should simply add compatibility for it on GTK < 3.4?

Yeah. Alternatively we could just add a comment there saying to change the code when the needed version is minimum supported.

I think this specific (example) code is missing an `#else`, and also I think the `gtk_build_add_from_string` call is not OK because of the undefined ordering of parameter evaluation in C (which is why I did it with two calls in the patch).
