That's great that you've found this. I was starting to dispair. Will you make 
the necessary change(s) to the patch or do you need me to do it?

Phil,

I've got to the bottom of the problem. Turns out that at least on my 
version of wxwidgets the function GetTextExtent doesn't update the
width if the string length is zero (as is the face for a FCI code).
Setting the width to zero before calling GetTextExtent cures the
problem for me and should have no adverse impact. Now I've got to the 
bottom of this I'll go ahead and commit your patch.

Thanks, and sorry its taken so long to debug.

Andrew
