I've found updating glib to be pretty safe - on Tribblix, I've simply
replaced the package with a new version and haven't noticed any
problems at all. (Either with 2.40 or earlier version bumps.)

I've currently got lightdm and the gtk greeter built and running.
I can authenticate, it does something, then boots me straight
back to the login screen. So there's still a little more work
required.
