Thanks. Here's how I interpreted your idea. But unfortunately it still doesn't work.

GtkTextIter *location, gchar *text,
gint len, gpointer user_data)
{ // Reinstall the vadj position gtk_adjustment_set_value(vadj, preserve_pos);
}/**
* This function should insert text into tv but preserve the
* display of the first line in the buffer.

*/
void insert_text()
{
int i;
// Remember the current position of vadj and reinstall it in // on_insert_text
preserve_pos = gtk_adjustment_get_value(vadj); GString *s = g_string_new("");
for (i=0; i<5000; i++)
g_string_append_printf(s, "Line %d\n", i);
GtkTextBuffer *buf = gtk_text_view_get_buffer(GTK_TEXT_VIEW(tv));
gtk_text_buffer_set_text(buf, s->str,-1);
g_string_free(s,TRUE);
}
void on_clicked(GtkWidget *button,
gpointer *userdata)
{
insert_text();
}
int main(int argc, char*argv[])
{
gtk_init(&argc,&argv);
GtkWidget *top = gtk_window_new(GTK_WINDOW_TOPLEVEL);

Hello.
Actual text insertion happens in default handler for
GtkTextBuffer::insert-text signal. You may be able to set adjustment
value from signal handler, connected to insert-text after the default
handler (at the moment your function will be called, sizes should be
already updated).
