gtk_main() transfers control to Gtk+ event loop. See
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-General.html#desc

It does not have to be the last thing in main(), programs
may want to perform some clean-up after return from
gtk_main().

It returns when gtk_main_quit() is called, see
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/gtk-General.html#gtk-main
Normally, gtk_main_quit() is called to end the GUI (and
consequently the app).
