I don't know what version of GTK+ you're using on both platforms so
it's a shot in the dark, but are you using GTK+ 2.18 or newer on
Windows? If so, you'll probably want to read
http://library.gnome.org/devel/gtk/2.18/gtk-migrating-ClientSideWindows.html.

Also, I've attached a very minimal "does nothing useful" example that
shows how to get a native window for a drawingarea. Be careful though,
you can only call ensure_native() when the widget has been realized...

hth,
