There is an open bug on this [1]. There is however a alternative 
(better?) way to style widgets in Gtk3, it is CSS. I recently modified 
a  script  to show how it is done, see [2]. If you are not styling 
widgets please elaborate what you are actually trying to do.

Have not used Pango but reading the bug [1] it may be related to it.
