Oh, my bad. I just noticed one difference. I copy/pasted the contents
of the RelativeLayout but not the RelativeLayout itself :) Apparently
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
isn't a good choice in this case. The RelativeLayout's height must be
a fixed height like:
android:layout_height="?android:attr/listPreferredItemHeight"
or
android:layout_height="100dip"
I just noticed the documentation for RelativeLayout even warns against
attempting to create a "... circular dependency between the size of
the RelativeLayout and the position of its children."
