It just works, nothing different than inserting text one language.

To extend on that:

 - All text in GTK+ must be encoded in UTF-8. There are routines
   in GLib for converting between different encodings.

 - You may get better rendering by telling Pango what language
   something is using the "language" property of GtkTextTag.
