The code is in
abi/src/af/ev/unix/ev_UnixToolbar.cpp
Often i'm ending up grepping the source tree because it's too big and
nested for my brain. In this case the search token was "GtkToolbar".
As a general approach, maybe it helps looking how the Nokia 770
version implements some classes. They are distinguished by having
'hildon' in their name and can therefore be issuing e.g.
find . -iname '*hildon*'

That code is in the LIBABIWORD cvs branch. However, i'm not sure if
it's of any use because that was pretty much a "sledge and glue"
approach to turn abiword into a widget.
You've mentioned that sugar is using GtkPlug/GtkSocket which can embed
widgets from separate processes. I'd suggest trying to go that route
unless i'm mistaken.
Hope that help,
Rob
