I think there is no ideal fix for this apart from damaging the design. By that
I mean changing the search button from a search icon to the text 'search'/'go'

Different mobile browsers disable images in different ways.
I knocked up this page to demonstrate -
http://jonrobson.me.uk/wikipedia/text-indent-test.html

With images disabled on my browser I do not see the alt text of the first or
second image. I consider that pretty bad and a fault of my browser.

I see nothing for solution 3 but that is expected as I have no background image
and a text-indent defined.
If I remove the text indent as in solution 4, I see the label - however this
solution requires javascript so I either display the text 'go' over the search
icon for users with javascript disabled and images enabled or I show the text
'go' to users with javascript enabled and images disabled.

Solution 5 although not showing any text shows a border showing it is a button.
Google uses this and I think it is acceptable.

On Nokia N95 I see the alt text of solution 1 and 2 and 3, 4 and 5 work the
same as above. As a result on a Nokia N95 with images disabled the search
button is readable.

We can do one of solution 4 or 5 but I don't wish to spend more time on this
problem as I don't think it is completely solvable....
