GtkBin does not handle size requisition or allocation. You'll need to do
this yourself by overriding the on_size_request and on_size_allocate
virtual functions.

Alternatively, you can derive from a container which handles this
already, such as GtkFrame, maybe setting the shadow type to SHADOW_NONE
to remove the visible border around it.
