Constructors are never automatically inherited (it wouldn't make much
sense in most cases, don't you think?). You need to chain it up
yourself.

Example:

public class FooRadioToolButton : Gtk.RadioToolButton {
        public FooRadioToolButton.from_stock (SList<Gtk.Widget> list,
StockWhatever stock) {
                base.from_stock (list, stock);  
        }
}
