OK, I removed my glade, unpacked glade3-3.8.0.tar.bz2,
ran ./configure && make && make install
That gave me only /usr/local/bin/glade-3, which says:

$ glade-3 --version
glade-3: error while loading shared libraries: libgladeui-1.so.11:
cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I also had src/.libs/{glade-3,lt-glace-3}
glade-3 was the same as /usr/local/bin/glade-3
lt-glade-3 said:

$ ./lt-glade-3 --version
glade3 3.8.0

linked it to /usr/local/bin/glade so that:
$ glade --version
glade3 3.8.0

but vr, with the flipcoin example, still said:

/home/wybo/visualruby_examples/flipcoin$ ruby main.rb
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.9.1/gems/vrlib-0.0.31/lib/GladeGUI.rb: line 127
