The GTK_JUSTIFY_LEFT is (asaik) only used for multi-line labels.  To
justify the label text relative to other stuff (like say a table) you want

    void        gtk_misc_set_alignment (GtkMisc *misc,
                                        gfloat       xalign,
                                        gfloat       yalign);

where [xy]align are in the range [0,1].  To left justify a label l you
write something like

    gtk_misc_set_alignment (GTK_MISC (l), 0, 0.5);
