So, i did't this in C/C++ code, but only in python gtk wrapper. And If
you want using system threads when main loop is running, you must call 
gdk_threads_init (void) function from C library, before you call Gtk::Main().
When u need in thread accessing to gtk widgets (like change label for example),
you must call gdk_threads_enter(void) before it and gdk_threads_leave(void)
after it. I don't find c++ wraps for this function, but probably, there is no
reason to make it :)

And there is Glib::Thread class, but i don't know it.
