No. "GLIB_CHECK_VERSION(2, 37, 5)" means glib >= 2.37.5. The code you have
added is compatible with glib >= 2.37.5.

If I will ship glib 2.42, then the package won't work for Linux systems
with glib < 2.42.

The choice is made a long time ago. We ship the lowest possible version of
the libs to make sure that it will run on the most variety of systems. We
don't pack every dependency lib into bundle, so we rely on some system
libs. And this is where compatibility should be kept.
With the new Linux build script (in the master branch) I have much more
flexibility, but with 0.64.x branch I am locked with the old build script.
So it puts limitations.
