I put the code for the short program up at

  http://www.s2.org/~chery/src/gtk-text-test.c

It has two buttons for adding and deleting text, and it prints the
size of the text as reported by the widget to stderr after changes.
The entry widget was supposed to be used for inserting specific text
but it was never finished because I didn't need that to see the
problem.
