There's `glib_check_version()`, although the spec makes it sound like the target is supposed to be the same version as your own development library (*).

> Generally you would pass in the constants GLIB_MAJOR_VERSION, GLIB_MINOR_VERSION, GLIB_MICRO_VERSION as the three arguments to this function; that produces a check that the library in use is compatible with the version of GLib the application or module was compiled against.
