Hi,
GtkLabel is derived from GtkMisc. You have to try 
gtk_misc_set_alignment() function:
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkMisc.html#gtk-misc-set-alignment
Default is "0.5", "0.5" alignment - set xalign parameter to "1.0" and 
label will be aligned in the way you want. By the way API reference 
mention about that, look at:
http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/gtk/GtkLabel.html
near the string "Text layout".
