try this create your buttons empty and use add to ad a label set the
label ellisize mode to one of

ELLIPSIZE_START    
ELLIPSIZE_MIDDLE    
ELLIPSIZE_END

using Gtk::Label::set_ellipsize     (     Pango::EllipsizeMode     
mode    )

or you could burrow into your button to get it's label using
Gtk::Widget* Gtk::Bin::get_child     (         )

which buttons inherit from Gtk::Bin but the immediate child may not be
the label it could be a Gtk::Box to hold the label and an image so you'd
need to test with dynamic_cast<Gtk::Label*>(yourbutton->get_child()) etc
