void   gtk_container_set_focus_hadjustment (GtkContainer     *container,
                                            GtkAdjustment   
*adjustment);
void   gtk_container_set_focus_vadjustment (GtkContainer     *container,
                                            GtkAdjustment   
*adjustment);

the testgtk sources.
