It probably is excessive. I'm having trouble working out what the precise
version required is. They don't believe in release tagging :-(

Should we perhaps be using GOBJECT_INTROSPECTION_REQUIRE() then?

This seemed easy enough. I have added an (untested on 0.6.14) patch that should
allow us to use either version, that we can drop at some point in the future.
