There was a thread on this topic just recently, but about a VBox
instead of a Frame.  see
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtkmm-list/2006-February/msg00090.html

Like a VBox, a Frame does not have it's own Gdk Window (see
http://gtkmm.org/docs/gtkmm-2.4/docs/tutorial/html/ch12.html for a
list and brief explanation of this).
