Both gtk and gdk are available in the gtk interface. I don't know,
which one you use for this.
If you need the gtkwindow, then just type cast Form1.Handle:
GtkWindow:=PGtkWindow(Form1.Handle);

Beware, that this is an internal LCL gtk interface structure and can
change in the future without warning.

If you find out how to do it, it would be nice to write a small example
and describe it on the wiki. Eventually this feature could be added to
the LCL.
