gtk_main();

;-) (seriously, you can run it any number of times. Each call blocks until
you gtk_main_quit(). Be careful not to get your dialog killed without a
gtk_main_quit(), or your program will weirdly require the user to click
"Exit" twice.)

You can also do:
while (gtk_events_pending())
  gtk_main_iteration();

if you want to do stuff in between main event loop loops.
