CList and CTree have lost their scrollbars. If you want to make
CList scrollable you should create a scrolled_window first and
add the CList to it. Then you can you gtk_scrolled_window_set_policy.

E.g. look into testgtk.c :

static void
create_clist (void)
{
[...]
      clist = gtk_clist_new_with_titles (TESTGTK_CLIST_COLUMNS, titles);
      gtk_widget_show (clist);
      scrolled_win = gtk_scrolled_window_new (NULL, NULL);
      gtk_scrolled_window_set_policy (GTK_SCROLLED_WINDOW (scrolled_win),
                                      GTK_POLICY_AUTOMATIC, 
                                      GTK_POLICY_AUTOMATIC);
      gtk_container_add (GTK_CONTAINER (scrolled_win), clist);
[...]
}
