Regarding the Row/Column manager, there does seem to be a 
problem with sizing to the number of children when it is
given no size hints.  If you specify the number of columns
with XtNcolumns or the width of the manager with XtNwidth,
it seems to size itself appropriately to the number of 
children.  However, if no dimensions are specified, it attempts
to size itself based on a single column, yet for some reason
actually sizes itself for more than one column.  This is 
probably a bug.  

You can get around this by specifying the number of columns
you want.
