I hardly know anything about GTK+, but a little about messages on Windows. 
I've had a look into the GTK+ documentation and found the following:
gtk_events_pending(), gtk_main_iteration(), gtk_main_iteration_do() - 
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/gtk/gtk-general.html#GTK-EVENTS-PENDING
Maybe you could call this once in a while.
