Rather this. However the configure event cannot be caught. At least I
failed to do it no matter what event masks or event boxes I tried. Probably
it is a bug in the Gtk for Windows, which has an incredible number of. E.g.
GtkColorButton just crashes when pressed. There is something terribly wrong
with dialog boxes that cause them sporadically crash (I did not figure
when) etc.

BTW, the binaries AdaCore distributes, how were they obtained? Officially
there is no Gtk 3.x distribution for Windows. Neither GIMP 3.x exists
(usually GIMP is a reliable source to get Windows Gtk binaries).

I tried to compile GtkSourceView under MinGW but it did not work with the
binaries from GNAT GPL, which have a quite outdated version 3.4 vs 3.8(9).
