it doesn't so much replace the gtk+ event loop as intertwine them.  gdk events
will not be processed unless you do things the gdk/gtk+ way, and the poe
wrappers do that.

but gtk_init() has nothing to do with the main loop --- it connects to the
display!  if you don't connect to the display, the windowing code can't do
much.
