Uh, go back and read your Gtk programming basics.
You can't (afaik) add widgets after gtk_main() is called. gtk_main never
returns, and it expects all events to be registered so it can start the
event loop and correctly notify people about things.
In general, you better call *any* gtk_whatever_new before gtk_main. Can you
give a counterexample that works?
Maybe I'm just totally wrong though. But I've never seen an example that
does otherwise.
