You don't need a custom renderer just to display a pixbuf icon and text in the 
same tree view cell.  You can pack two cell renderers (say one for a text 
model column and one for a pixbuf model column) in the same tree view column 
using gtk_tree_view_column_pack_start()/ gtk_tree_view_column_pack_end(), and 
then call gtk_tree_view_column_add_attribute() or 
gtk_tree_view_column_set_attributes() for each of the renderers to connect it 
to their respective model columns.  (Tree model columns are just data 
points.)

You can do something like this:

 GtkTreeModel *tree_store = GTK_TREE_MODEL(gtk_tree_store_new(2,
                                                              GDK_TYPE_PIXBUF,
                                                              G_TYPE_STRING));
 GtkTreeViewColumn *column = gtk_tree_view_column_new();
 gtk_tree_view_column_set_title(column, "My column");

 GtkCellRenderer *renderer = gtk_cell_renderer_pixbuf_new();
 gtk_tree_view_column_pack_start(column, renderer, FALSE);
 gtk_tree_view_column_set_attributes(column, renderer,
                                     "pixbuf", 0,
                                     NULL);

 renderer = gtk_cell_renderer_text_new();
 gtk_tree_view_column_pack_start(column, renderer, TRUE);
 gtk_tree_view_column_set_attributes(column_p, renderer,
                                     "text", 1,
                                     NULL);

 GtkWidget *tree_view = gtk_tree_view_new_with_model(tree_store);
 gtk_tree_view_append_column(tree_view, column);
