Hi Wouter,

The POD for this module explicitly states the need to pass the version
as a string:

    version => $version
        The particular version of the library that should be wrapped, in
        string form. For "Gtk-3.0.typelib", it is '3.0'.

… so the bug you're experiencing only occurs when using the library in
a way that is explicitly not supported. Therefore, I'm going to handle
this as a feature request. FWIW upstream bug tracker lives there:
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/ (the component is gnome-perl IIRC).

Cheers,
