GTK_TYPE_... macros are really a shorthand for gtk_..._get_type() calls
that register that given type. If you don't register the type,
g_type_from_name() should not return it (and in fact your snippet
returns to me that neither GtkButton or GtkFrame are defined).
If g_type_from_name("GtkButton") is non 0, you have GTK_TYPE_BUTTON or
something equivalent before it.
Ciao.
