Thanks Don.
It appears that wxPython2.6.1 is *sometimes* more aggressive in 
calculating a min size for components than 2.5.x was, so much so that 
the Choice component is given "0" for height (and sometimes also a too 
small width).

I've added a spacer to the sizer set-up, as well as a min size in the 
resource file to my local copy, and that now works fine in every case 
I've found; if I see no problem after some more testing, I'll put that 
change into CVS.
