Including C code that requires glib 2?
bindgen is not ideal for generating bindings to GLib/GObject-based libraries. You probably want to take a look at https://github.com/gtk-rs/gir, which is used to generate the GTK/GStreamer/etc bindings.

Are there any ongoing efforts of making a desktop environment (similar to KDE or Gnome) in Rust?
See https://github.com/sdroege/gobject-example-rs but I should really update that for all the improvements in the glib bindings. That could be all much easier now.
