The stock buttons are the ones with icons besides them. They are a part
of the GTK library and are easily recognised by users.
e.g.: the About buttons in GTK applications have a small star icon near
the text, the Cancel buttons have a small X icon near the text etc.
AFAICT from some random perl code from the net[1] you create the buttons
via some special API. AFAICT there should be a call like this:
my $nextbutton = Gtk2::Button->new_from_stock('gtk-go-forward');

Maybe if you invert the creation order the position will switch (I
haven't looked at all at the code, so please excuse me if I am talking
non-sense).
