This is not allowed - to emit the delete_event signal you have to use
gtk_widget_event(). Emitting signals with emit_by_name is not allowed
unless you are writing the implementation of the widget that's
emitting the signal.

However even with gtk_widget_event() this is fragile in the face of
future GTK changes, I just don't think it's a good idea. It's much
better to have a close_window function and call that.
