$new_n_cols = $treeview->append_column ($column);
$index_of_new_col = $new_n_cols - 1;

you can also go brute force:

$column = the column i want to know about;
@columns = $treeview->get_columns;
for ($index = 0 ; $index < @columns ; $index++) {
        last if $column == $columns[$index];
}
if ($index < @columns) {
        do something with your new knowledge
} else {
        $column isn't in the treeview!
}

possibly some grep magic would take away the pain and ugliness of that 
very C-like idiom.
