gtk_container_set_border_width() works with GtkWindows the
same way as with any other GtkContainer.  And the default
border width *is* zero.

You probably don't want to change container border width at
all but change *window manager decorations* instead.

Cross your fingers and use

  http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkWindow.html#gtk-window-set-decorated

As usual, the window manager can ignore it (mine definitely
will).

Windows that lack decorations are much harder to move and
resize (even impossible with some window managers) so it's
generally a bad idea to disable them.

P.S.: Since this is not your first question about changing
window manager behaviour, ensure you read and understood
