I don't see that here:
http://www.gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/reference/html/classGtk_1_1Calendar.html

Please be more specific.

You are probably compiling without warnings-as-errors, which allows the
compiler to guess that an undeclared function is void something() and
only fail during linking.

The C documentation suggests that this is a public struct field:
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkCalendar.html

Therefore you can access it via the C API. Just use gobj().

A patch to add API for it to gtkmm would be welcome.
