I've dug into this a bit more and I have a slightly better solution,
though with one big caveat.  The attached patch will make the format
warning wrap, and wrap to the correct width; however, it will prevent
the window from ever being resized smaller.

The solution comes from <http://blog.16software.com/dynamic-label-
wrapping-in-gtk>, and is meant to work around the ancient height-for-
width wrapping problem in GTK+
<https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=101968>.

I am not convinced the bug warrants this kind of regression, especially
considering that the "(development version)" text will go away as soon
as we release.  Any thoughts?
