Thanks Daniel and Pavlo.  I was getting mixed up with MSVC where 
dialog-based main windows are pretty common.

I followed your advice and rearranged things so that the application 
will now launch Gtk::MessageDialog as a child dialog (rather than it 
actually 'being' a Gtk::MessageDialog) and it's now working as expected.
