Ah - a question I asked myself many times until I watched the WWDC videos where clearly it was meant to be so obvious that it was perhaps assumed anyone would just understand how to do it.
Select one button, then shift-select the other, you now have two buttons selected. At the bottom right-hand corner of the main pane of interface builder is a small, grey, pill-shaped control you perhaps missed, it looks greyed out and inactive, but it's not. The middle piece of it is a bit like a capital H, click that. At the bottom it says 'Widths Equally", click that. That should add the constraint you want. Alternatively I'm sure you clicked the Edit menu button and found nothing there, but it was there, it's called Pin instead of Constrain. If you have not watched the WWDC 2012 videos, and have access to them, I really advise watching all (there's 2 or 3 I don't recall) presentations on Autolayout. When I first saw that feature I thought, bah, springs and struts are fine, who needs this. Then I watched the videos. They are packed with great demos, great tips and after I'd watched them I had a completely different opinion and I'm very much looking forward to using them in anger soon.
