I had the same problem, so I just cut'n'pasted the code from gtkclist.c
and changed it a bit. Look at the bottom of this message.

Then I just used gtk_clist_set_sort_type to change to the function,
which uses the sort column set by gtk_clist_set_sort_column.

There is a field in the GtkClist struct which is called selection.
It is a GList, and its contents are the row numbers of the selected
rows. To get the row number from the data component, use the
GPOINTER_TO_INT () on it.

If the selection mode of the clist is GTK_SELECTION_SINGLE or
GTK_SELECTION_BROWSE, then there could of course be at most one item in
the GList.
