I can't remember if 'guitabtooltip' is supported with the (ancient)
version of MacVim you are using. If you upgrade to MacVim 7.3 [1] it
will work (nb. requires 10.5+, I haven't built a 10.4 version yet).
Oh, and that version has the following default:

set guitablabel=%M%t

which is a lot more pleasant than the default behavior in 7.2.
