Hmm... the API reference puts it like this:
"This function is used if an application has window movement grips.
When GDK can support it, the window movement will be done using the
standard mechanism for the window manager or windowing system."

I'm not actually sure what it means about the "window movement grips"
but it does say that it'll try to use the window manager if it can. I
just thought it was meant to be an easy way to do an often performed
function? Surely if the function's available in Linux it needs to be
available in Win32 too for portability reasons? Without it I'll need
to either just ignore this handy function or use #ifdef directives to
only use it on Linux.
