Without having read the code... this might be possible.

Gtk will send a single click event, followed by a second event for the double-click:

gint
signal_handler_event(GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventButton *event, gpointer func_data)
{
  if (GTK_IS_BUTTON(widget) &&
       (event->type==GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS ||
        event->type==GDK_3BUTTON_PRESS) ) {
    printf("I feel %s clicked with button %d\n",
           event->type==GDK_2BUTTON_PRESS ? "double" : "triple",
           event->button);
  }

  return FALSE;
}

I'll see about rejecting those extra events - should be an easy fix.
