you can't popup a menubar factory, either create a factory with
gtk_item_factory_new (GTK_TYPE_MENU, ..) or don't pop it up and
do something like

window =
  gtk_widget_new (GTK_TYPE_WINDOW,
                  "child", gtk_widget_new (GTK_TYPE_VBOX,
                                           "visible", TRUE,
                                           "child",
                                           GTK_ITEM_FACTORY (factory)->widget,
                                           NULL),
                  "visible", TRUE,
                  NULL);
gtk_widget_show (GTK_ITEM_FACTORY (factory)->widget);
