[Mono-winforms-list] Control Resize?

That is weird, I don't think I've seen that before.

Can you please file a bug with the source code of the simple app you 
created?  I'll take a look at it.

[Class Libraries -> System.Windows.Forms]

Generally I just leave everything at the default font, so maybe the code 
is not correctly measuring non-default fonts.

Thanks!
Jonathan
