Me too!
Same problem here. It helps sometimes not to change the label's size. I
use a monospaced font and initialize my labels with something like
VALUE=' ', and don't change the number of
characters later.

Similar problem: try adding another base to the bottom of your widget.
Again, the whole widget is resized. Not always, but often enough. Even
labels become bigger in both X and Y direction.
