Have you tried pressing the button?
In Win7 (only thing I have access to ATM), with a buffer with unsaved
changes, if you click on the 'X' to close, you should get a dialog box
asking "Save changes to [buffer name]?" with the options 'Yes' (= save
changes and quit), 'No' (= discard changes and quit), and 'Cancel' (=
don't quit, changes remain).
So, GVim itself already has some protection.
As Tony stated, anything else would be up to the O/S. Or, an external
O/S-specific tool. An example for Windows would be to use AutoHotkey¹.

¹: "grey out" the close button script (didn't work for me in Win7,
should work pre-Vista?):
