I have used the code snippet below to find the accelerator, if any, for a menu 
item. It seems to produde the correct results for the menu items in testgtk.

      parent = gtk_widget_get_parent (item);
      if (GTK_IS_MENU (parent))
        {
          GtkAccelGroup *group;
          gint i;

          group = gtk_menu_get_accel_group (GTK_MENU (parent));
          for (i = 0; i < group->n_accels; i++)
            {
              GtkAccelGroupEntry *entry;
              GClosure *closure;

              entry = &group->priv_accels[i];
              closure = entry->closure;
              if (closure->data == item)
                {
                   GtkAccelKey key;
                   key = entry->key;

                   accelerator = gtk_accelerator_name (key.accel_key,
                                                       key.accel_mods);
                   break;
                }
            }
        }
