border_width is not directly implemented by Gtk2::Window since it is a part of
Gtk2::Container (which Gtk2::Window inherits from).  I just checked the webcvs
(which is admitably old) and this method and the two other data member functions
for container are not implemented.  You can use set_border_width and
get_border_width.

Muppet, it seems that many of the widgets don't implement properties.  Is this a
design decision?  I know that most of the properties have accessor/mutator
methods like get_prop/set_prop.  Should we only implement those that don't have
accessor/mutator methods like filename in Gtk2::FileSelection?

Gtk2::Container properties
  "border-width"         gulong               : Read / Write
  "resize-mode"          GtkResizeMode        : Read / Write
  "child"                GtkWidget            : Write
