To be precise:

gtk-2.12 requires glib-2.13.5
gtk-2.14 required glib-2.17.6
gtk-2.16 requires glib-2.19.7

Regarding gtkbuilder, the menus were added in gtk-2.15.0. Another
important improvement is attributes in labels: there was a bug [1, 2]
that mnemonic labels loose their function when using for example a
bold attribute (no attribute merging). In case of our dialogs that
means we should avoid bold mnemonic labels, then we can ignore the
glade warning and it works in 2.14.

So I'd say gtk 2.14 & glib 2.18. For our current gtkbuilder usage in
dialogs menu's won't be a problem and we need the improved gio support
that was not there in gtk 2.12.
