Looks like you have to specify the button's width and height explicitly:

$item = Gnome2::Canvas::Item->new($root,
                                  "Gnome2::Canvas::Widget",
                                  widget => $button,
                                  x => 2,
                                  y => 2,
                                  width => 50,
                                  height => 50,
                                  );

Use set_size_request for that.
