I hope I'm not speeking wrong, but the scroll event is activated either
by the GDK_BUTTON_PRESS_MASK or the GDK_SCROLL_MASK. So puting one of
them will result on the button signal and the scroll signal callbacks
to be called if connected.

What I do here is usually to put the code of my button callback in a
seprate routine with the button number as argument (and some others if
needed) and I call this new routine from the button and the scroll
callbacks.
