 The *tutorial* is incorrect (well outdated), the API reference is.  If
 you take a look at:
    <http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkCalendar.html#gtk-cale=
ndar-display-options>
 You'll see gtk_calendar_display_options() is deprecated in favor of
 gtk_calendar_set_display_options().  And if you follow its
 documentation, you'll end up here:
    <http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkCalendar.html#GtkCalen=
darDisplayOptions>
 where it is stated that GTK_CALENDAR_WEEK_START_MONDAY is deprecated
 too.

 GTK_CALENDAR_WEEK_START_MONDAY is completely ignored.  If you start the
 sample program from the totorial with LC_ALL=C, you'll see weeks
 beginning with Sunday, and clicking on "weeks start on monday" doesn't
 change the behavior (but produces the warning).
