g_clear_pointer was introduced in glib 2.34.
Likely, your glib is older than 2.34.
https://developer.gnome.org/glib/unstable/glib-Memory-Allocation.html#g-clear-pointer

Try to define it yourself, for example as done in 
spice-gtk/gtk/glib-compat.h
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/spice/spice-gtk/tree/gtk/glib-compat.h
