I'm also trying to make drag-and-drop work in a tree and not finding
much in the docs. The best docs I've found so far are for the Python
bindings. Try:

<http://www.pygtk.org/pygtk2tutorial/sec-TreeViewDragAndDrop.html>
<http://faq.pygtk.org/index.py?req=show&file=faq13.033.htp>
<http://faq.pygtk.org/index.py?req=show&file=faq13.034.htp>

In particular, I believe you will also need to call
gtk_tree_view_enable_model_drag_dest and/or
gtk_tree_view_enable_model_drag_dest on the tree_view.

That said, I haven't managed to make it all work yet, so I'd be very
interested to see any working code - in my case for a tree rather than a
list.

Cheers, Dave
