What version of Glade do you run ? I assume you are running stable 3.4,
in stable 3.6 (soon) you will have the option to keep them in a
separate directory
for the Glade runtime, and also specify relative or fullpaths in the actual
Glade file (the basename is always used to be looked up in the per project
resource directory).

Its currently only available in unstable Glade though sorry.
