The GDK 2 function is:

void
gdk_window_iconify (GdkWindow *window)
{
  Display *display;
  GdkWindowObject *private;
  
  g_return_if_fail (window != NULL);
  g_return_if_fail (GDK_IS_WINDOW (window));

  if (GDK_WINDOW_DESTROYED (window))
    return;

  display = GDK_WINDOW_XDISPLAY (window);

  private = (GdkWindowObject*) window;

  if (GDK_WINDOW_IS_MAPPED (window))
    {  
      XIconifyWindow (display, GDK_WINDOW_XWINDOW (window), DefaultScreen (display));

    }
  else
    {
      /* Flip our client side flag, the real work happens on map. */
      gdk_synthesize_window_state (window,
                                   0,
                                   GDK_WINDOW_STATE_ICONIFIED);
    }
}

This won't work exactly with 1.2, you want something like:

void
gdk_window_iconify (GdkWindow *window)
{
  Display *display;
  
  g_return_if_fail (window != NULL);

  if (GDK_WINDOW_DESTROYED (window))
    return;

  display = GDK_WINDOW_XDISPLAY (window);

  XIconifyWindow (display, GDK_WINDOW_XWINDOW (window), DefaultScreen (display));
}

You'll have to include gdk/gdkx.h
