May be you should try gtkglarea instead - I use it under several OpenGL
implementation (also on IRIX) without any problems.

ps: I hope that you do not be angry that instead of advice how to fight with
gtkGL I recommended you another widget. But I tried several GL widgets and
only gtkglarea was without problems.

pps: Possible problem of gtkGL on SGI. SGI Xserver has more than one visual -=>
you should get ID of visual which you selected by glXChooseVisual and than set
this visual for your widget with gtk_.*push_visual gtk_.*push_colormap (due to
lack of time I can not include proper documentation here).
