Some possible reasons for this are:

a) No one loves you
b) No one cares about the problem
c) the assignee has been busy
d) the problem is non-trivial
e) the problem is non-trivial and hard to debug

Feel free to choose one or more according to your psychological
makeup.

Since you posted a .blend and a nice description of the problem, I
will not comment on the un-indented python code.

Passing in a tool-tip string ( the optional argument ) seems to make
it work better, but there are still issues with garbage getting into
the button string when editing and memory allocation/cleanup.

This tells me something more is going on here.  That, plus the fact
that all the obvious things I checked were not the problem.
