Right, it should be set_size_request().  set_default_size() is a
Gtk::Window method.  This should be fixed.

However, you should generally try to avoid set_size_request() unless
it's absolutely necessary, since it won't allow the user to shrink the
widget below that size.  Having a proper container layout makes it
usually sufficient to call set_default_size() on the main window.
