gtk::statusicon is a gtkmm class, not available in the original Gtk2. That's why it isn't possible to include it.
However, I heard that Gtk2.10 will have libegg not as extension, but as native Gtk classes which means that a systray icon will be possible then. But that will take some time :) |

If you don't want to wait, you could always roll your own by making a PNG version of the icon (or whatever graphics format turns your crank) and load it as a pixbuf.
There's an example of how to use an image in a button that can be adapted to your purposes on the PHP-Gtk2 Blog:

There is, but it hasn't been implemented yet. You can get the same effect using a GtkTable, however.
Hmmm... This sounds like a good topic for the PHP-Gtk2 Blog.
