In the AdjustBounds() definition in CStatic Text, the right bounds is
adjusted to one greater than the actual calculation.  This makes room
for an extra character in the bounds.  Why is this done was it a
mistake or is this +1 there for a reason?  I prefer to adjust for the
extra size myself.

void	CStaticText::AdjustBounds()
{
  ...

	if (lineWidth > 0) {
		bounds.right = lineWidth;
	} else {
		bounds.right = t->viewRect.right - t->viewRect.left;
	}
	bounds.right = bounds.right / hScale + 1;
                                             ^^^
 ...

}

I removed this in my copy of it, but I just want to know if there is
any reason to put it back in.
