Ok, the attached quick hack (on gtkmm3) fixed that issue for me. With that 
patch the acceleration keys are now correctly displayed again with gtkmm3.
But obviously I have no idea whether the acceleration label was created 
explicitly there for some reason by gtkmm, whether it is still used by any 
Gtkmm subclass or something, or whether it was simply some left over of 
something.

I guess I just move this discussion onto the gtkmm list now.
