That looks like the old and busted gtk+-1.2 way. You should use label
markup instead -- something like:

  label = gtk_label_new();
  gtk_label_set_markup( label, "<span font_desc=\"Mono\">My text</span>" );
  button = gtk_button_new();
  gtk_container_add( button, label );

then later, to change the font:

  gtk_label_set_markup( label, "<span font_desc=\"Serif\">My text</span>" );
