Just a note of endorsement - the maintainers are very responsive, bugs are squashed in cvs typically within a few hours, the bindings are done with a large dose of common sense (i.e. they look like Perl modules, not bindings-to-C-modules, yet they remain close enough to the C API that you can generally use the standard GTK+ documentation) and the code base has been stabilising quite quickly. Anyone thinking of doing a Perl GUI should consider gtk2-perl.
