That looks like it was generated by Glade 1.

And no, Glade does not autosave, if you have problems
loading a Glade file with Glade-2 that was saved by
Glade-3, please send the Glade file in question, even
better if you send a before picture (i.e. the file before
Glade-3 loaded and saved it).

While making Glade-2 read files generated by Glade-3
is not really a priority (Glade-2 is pretty much phased out
at this point and unsupported), its technically supposed to
work and may indicate some other problem.
