Thank you for the reply. I'm still puzzled. Here is the current sequence
of events:

new layout
set_wrap(WRAP_WORD_CHAR)
set_width(width)
set_markup(markup)
get_pixel_size()

Later I draw it and the requested wrapping and width works correctly, so
things seem to work, although I guess I'm obviously doing something
wrong somewhere.

Is there a problem with this sequence of calls?
