If you are interested in producing a binding for GTK+, I recommend 
joining the language-bindings gnome org mailing list.  Most of the other 
language binding authors are on that list, so it is a good place to ask 
questions that LB developers run into (most likely, someone else has 
also run into it :)

Some slightly out of date docs that might help you understand the 
GType/GValue/GClosure/GSignal stuff in glib are available at:
 http://www.gnome.org/~james/language-bindings/

(I should update them at some point ...)
