Hi. I'm just learning gtk+, and I had the same problem using the
xpm_label function given in the examples (it does the same as your
program). The solution was to call gtk_widget_realize (or something
similar) on the new object. Don't ask me why it works, but it does!

You should read the testgtk.c example which comes with gtk+: it is
a good reference on how to use all the functions together, which is
not always obvious with only the info reference.
