You need to set that up after creating the window and before displaying
it, if the toplevel's visible attribute is TRUE, then it will already
be realized and thus its too late.

Set the toplevel window to be invisible, setup your colormap after
glade_xml_new(); and before gtk_widget_show (toplevel).
