Under some conditions: when GSTown.SetText is called, the town window does not expand correctly to display the entire text and needs to be expanded manually.

Let's illustrate the problem with the attached screenshots. They come from the Script I'm working on:
Shot 1: initial situation: townwindows just show a general text.
Shot 2: one month after, the city Burgistein received cargo requirements, and the townwindow text was updated with requirements. Here the window expands correctly.
Shot 3: some time later, the town Ardon also received cargo requirements and the townwindow text was updated BUT the new text isn't entirely displayed.
Shot 4: I expanded just a little bit Ardon's window (horizontally) and the text is now entirely shown (only on two lines).

Note: Until here, all text changes were done in town windows which where leaved open.
Shot 5: Here, I closed the Ardon's town window and reopened it: the text is now shown correctly (on three lines), as it should have been in shot 3.

Additional notes:
- I only noticed the problem when I changed fonts configuration in openttd.cfg (using larger fonts than default). I think, that with default configuration this wouldn't happen, or not on the same way.
- I could post a savegame but the one I have at the moment is full of more or less exotical NewGRF's. If you need a clean test case, I can manage to build it. But I'm hoping that the problem is quite clear without it. :p
