I looked closer and only my old projects use AM_PATH_GLIB, like this:

AM_PATH_GLIB(1.2.0,
                [LIBS="$LIBS $GLIB_LIBS" CFLAGS="$CFLAGS $GLIB_CFLAGS"],
                glib=false, "gmodule" )

(and those only use automake 1.4)


My glib 2.0 projects all use PKG_CHECK_MODULES(PROJECT, glib-2.0)
(with a mix of automake 1.4 and 1.8)
