This is ok: N_() does nothing except marking the string for translation.

_() is a function that returns the translated string. For example, you
need to do 

const char *message = N_("My message");

printf ("%s", _(message));

Now to the menu stuff: The menu item is translated by a separate
function that is set with gtk_item_factory_set_translate_func (see
gtkam-main.c). Have you verified that this function gets called and
returns the correct translation?
