That is a less grievous error than the original code (it will work on
gcc), but a potential error none the less. GTK+ callbacks should have C
linkage specification whereas static member functions have C++ linkage.

gcc will be OK.  Some compilers (in particular some intel compilers)
will not: it won't work with any compiler which uses a different calling
convention for static member functions than functions with C linkage.
