Dima Krasner, to whom you refer, has GTK 1.2 (*not* GTK2) and glib 1 at
https://github.com/dimkr/gtk and https://github.com/dimkr/glib

Of more interest to this mailing list, he's also written
https://github.com/dimkr/nosystem
(a stub library that provides the symbols that libsystemd exports);

and I just noticed LoginKit, a shim to provide the logind interface over
consolekit2 and upower:
https://github.com/dimkr/LoginKit
This is not yet ready to use, though.

Thanks,
