Thank you, Oliver, but I wish it did.. :) pango_layout_get_pixel_size() 
returned the same too-large value that ...get_extents() did.

I experimented with avoiding reuse of the same layout over and over, and 
this seems to solve my problem, though I'd been hoping resuing the 
layout could save me memory space etc.

Thanks again.
