gtk_menu_shell_append takes `GtkWidget *' as a second argument:
    http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkMenuShell.html#gtk-menu-shell-append

like I said, gtk_menu_bar_append is a deprecated alias, use gtk_menu_shell_append
instead; either way you need to use the type in the declared prototype.
