Check my book on this, http://developer.gnome.org/doc/GGAD, chapter on
GDK, section on button press events.

Basically if you get a double click you will get a single click first; the
computer can't read your mind and decide whether another click is coming
or not. :-) You could let a timeout expire before accepting a single
click, but then the GUI would feel really sluggish.
