To use gtk_clist_set_column_auto_resize the c[list|tree] has to be realised
otherwise it goes funny (with columns being set to only a few pixels wide).
However your error is possibly because you're using a seperate column to do the
tree bit.
As I've not really explained it too well, heres a diagram

---------------------------
| Col 0| Col 1            |
| [-]--| /                |
|  + --| usr              |

Doing it that way will generate the gdk_font error. The way to solve it is

---------------------------
| Col 0       |Col 1      |
| [-]-- /     |           |
| [+]-- usr   |           |

IE putting text in the same column as the tree stuff.

Hope that helps.
