Is it just me, or do label widths in Paragraph Layout not work properly?

E.g., I set the label width to 3in in a List paragraph, but when TeX'ed, the
label is narrower than when I remove the width specifier altogether.

The exported TeX file has

  \newenvironment{lyxlist}[1]
    {\begin{list}{}
      {\settowidth{\labelwidth}{#1}
       \setlength{\leftmargin}{\labelwidth}
       \addtolength{\leftmargin}{\labelsep}
       \renewcommand{\makelabel}[1]{##1 \hfill}}}
    {\end{list}}

in the preamble, and 

  \begin{lyxlist}{3in}
  \item [\textbf{Me}]Hi There!
  \item [\textbf{You}]Ho There!
  \end{lyxlist}

which looks roughly right, but it doesn't look right.

As a side issue, the width specifier shows up as "00.00.0000" in the
Paragraph Layout dialog the first time around.  Is that a bug?  If not, what
does it mean?

Oh, this is LyX 0.12.1 pre8 on MkLinux (built from source).
