basically, you can't. GTK is a cross platform toolkit, so it doesn't
have an API that exposes backend details like XEvent.

if you root around in the sources of gdk, especially the gdk-x11
directory, you will find some stuff that could be useful. but its not
GTK and not even really GDK, since these APIs are designed to work on a
variety of backends, including several that are not X Window related.
