Comment 1 Alexander Kurtakov CLA 2012-10-17 14:59:43 EDT 
There is the following in the Gtk 3.x documentation.
"Note

Handle with care. Note that the natural height of a height-for-width widget will generally be a smaller size than the minimum height, since the required height for the natural width is generally smaller than the required height for the minimum width."

But as this does not affect Gtk 2 and that's our best guess I pushed it to master. http://git.eclipse.org/c/platform/eclipse.platform.swt.git/commit/?id=35f130070627930dae79842022c951694c5a3dfa
