Oh, and note the following comment in "draw_row()" in "gtkclist.c" in
GTK+ 1.2.3:

  /* if the function is passed the pointer to the row instead of null,
   * it avoids this expensive lookup */
  if (!clist_row)
    clist_row = (g_list_nth (clist->row_list, row))->data;

Yes, "expensive" is the term I'd use for it....
