You can get a popup balloon when you hover the mouse using this plugin. I think 
it just uses the taglist in Vim so if you can get the gtags created list into a 
format Vim understands it should work:

Al has indicated to me that he doesn't use the plugin anymore though so don't 
look for any big fixes or feature enhancements in the future. It works fairly 
well, but since it requires the mouse, I don't find it very useful for my 
workflow in Vim.

I prefer adding "preview" to my 'completeopt' option and using omni or user 
completion. This uses the "preview window" instead of a balloon popup, but it 
accomplishes the same task.
