   Indeed, this is the wrong approach.  IMHO, a better approach would be
to create a new Gtk+ container (probably derived from GtkHBox) for the
panel, one which would take care of drawing the rounded corners in the
usual expose event handler.  And the drawing would be simply blitting
one GdkPixbuf for each rounded corner.
