In fact I checked your code and it only tries to load libappindicator if XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP is Unity. With that variable set I can see the tray icon (note that its normal value is KDE).
That's good then. I added 'KDE' to the allowed desktops when libappindicator is present with the Gtk2 toolkit. I also recompiled the 64bit example program with this change and overwrote it in the repository. So now if the fix it should also work on KDE, given XDG_CURRENT_DESKTOP returns 'KDE'. Thank for the link as well. It would seem, reading the information in the link you posted, that Gtk3 uses libappindicator3-1. If anyone actively is working on adding to Gtk3 lcl interface you may want to consider looking at and copying some of the code I committed to github.
