Fortunately, there is a way of doing it that doesn't involve a callback 
such as yours. It's still not perfect, but it works:
__

GList *foo;
int row;

foo = GTK_CLIST(clist_widget)->selection;
row = GPOINTER_TO_INT(foo->data);
printf ("User selected row: '%d'\n", row);
__
(note that 'foo' is a linked list, so if you have multiple items 
selected in the list, simply walk through 'foo' and you can get all of 
the rows the user selected).

I guess you could probably write a macro something like this:

#define gtk_clist_get_selected_row(foo) 
GPOINTER_TO_INT((GTK_CLIST(foo)->selection)->data)

to get a quick'n'dirty version, but that's untested 
off-the-top-of-my-head guesswork, YMMV.
