I found at the reason for this, and it is a head up where the sun don't
shine..
The text for the label is the output of a command executed via a popen
call. Then the output from the popen's stream is read using an fgets().
Well fgets() adds a new-line on the end of the string. Well, guess what
I forgot to strip off?
Ya guessed it. So the newline was causing "two" lines to be written to
the label, not one, moving the viewable text up one line.
Dahhhhh.
