I don't know about GLIB, but it just might have one of those :) If not, try an install of the old version setting a DESTDIR on the make command line (e.g. ``make DESTDIR=/tmp install''). This will get you the tree of installed files to seek & destroy. If that doesn't work either, I have no idea.. (I'd just install the new version over the old one, perhaps slightly polluting the installation, but is usually doesn't matter much..)
