 The !SpinButton sizing thing cannot be fixed in wxPython - it has to be
 fixed in
 individual applications.  This is really a problem because the underlying
 GTK
 !SpinButton widget is much wider in GTK+3 than it is in GTK+2.

 Compare these two and you will see the problem:
  * https://developer.gnome.org/gtk2/stable/GtkSpinButton.html
  * https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkSpinButton.html

 The reason you do not see it under Ubuntu is that Ubuntu's wxPython
 package
 still uses GTK+2.
