Sounds like you should be able to get away with just
gtk_widget_set_size_request()
on the child textview, that should ensure the child text view always
receives at least
the size you set for it's minimum request without restricting the size
of the parent
scrolled window.
Note: In GTK+ 2.x setting the size request of the child widget was acting like
gtk_scrolled_window_set_min_content_width/height() as a sort of implied hidden
feature, in GTK+ 3.x you can choose to force the size of the scrolled window
by using the new api or just force the size of the child by using
gtk_widget_set_size_request().
