I don't know, I have never seen this bug myself. But this looks like bug in
QPainter::draw_formattet_text_or_whatever_it_is_called and not directly a bug
in QIconView, as the QPainter magic fucntion does the calculation and
linebreaking + drawing of QIconViewItem textes. If it still happens after
porting I'll have to look at that.
