That's surely related to QLabels with word-wrap turned on.
Some time ago I reported this bug to Qt too and I received a reply that it 
won't be fixed because it can't be fixed *sigh*

I found a kind of workaround though. Sometimes it works good, sometimes not 
(it tends to produce different results on different OSes): I do something 
like 

wordWrappedLabel->setMinimumHeight( wordWrappedLabel->heightForWidth( 
labelsWidth );

But labelsWidth needs to be calculated too....

Cheers,
Dmitry.
