Try converting the file into png and putting it somewhere into
<prefix>/share/icons/gnome/... directory (preferably under
'applications' category?).
Then re-run gtk-update-icon-cache.exe -f -t <prefix>/share/icons/gnome
Then change the icon name in glade to the name of the icon you've
added (without extension) and see if it works. Usually glade should
list that icon as one of the known icons in the "Select Named Icon"
dialog.
