_label as an argument is good.
There is a bug in intltool with XML special chars (&, <, and >). I have
submitted a patch and a pull request, but this hasn't been merged for the
moment:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/intltool/+bug/1191978 (You can use my fork if
you want until upstream accepts my patch :
https://code.launchpad.net/~azmeuk/intltool/xmlfix )
Strings containing &, < and > may don't work with the current version.

I have just committed something. I think you forgot to call "_" function on
labels, letting them untranslated. Can you test now ?

_ function has two features.
The first on is that it is parsed by gettext/intltool, so its static
content can be translated. And only the static content, if you put some
variable in _(), it won't be translated.
_("Foobar") works
char* foo = "Foobar";
_(foo) does not work

The second one is that it does translate a string (static or not) if the
translation is available.
_("Foobar") works
char* foo = "Foobar";
_(foo) works too.

So, if you want a string to be translatable you may check those two things :
- It is detectable by gettext/intltool : *<button _label="… *
- The string is translated somewhere, using _() function. This is in my
commit.
