Don't know currently about GTK1, but in GTK2 you can:

  * fix the "tab order" of the widgets whithin the container with
    gtk_container_set_focus_chain()
  * for finer control handle the "focus" signal yourself (setting the
    focus on whichever widget with gtk_widget_grab_focus(), depending on
    the "direction" which came with the event).

See f.e. <http://developer.gnome.org/doc/GGAD/sec-widgetindetail.html#Z160>

Hope this gives you a track to follow for GTK1.2
