This seems to end up requiring an integer parameter.  Is that right?

	(use-modules (gtk gdk))
	(gdk-char-width "fixed" #\A)

	<unnamed port>:3:1: In procedure gdk-char-width in expression (gdk-char-width "fixed" #\A):
	<unnamed port>:3:1: Wrong type argument in position 2: #\A

I might have hoped to pass a scheme character to gdk_char functions.
I think that'd work better with normal scheme string and character
stuff.
