It should be as simple as:
make the vbox
put the various items in it, including the hbox
put the increase & decrease buttons in the hbox.

That certainly works in one of the example codes in gtk-fortran
(hl_containers.f90).

[An alternative might be to use a 2xn table and make most of the items
span 2 columns.]
