Thanks!  Good spot :-)

It was a missing method in the Renaissance autolayout system.  I've added
it, if you are using CVS, please try upgrading from CVS - it should work
now (it does for me).

If you are not using CVS, just drop the GSVBox.m and GSHBox.m files which
I'm sending you in attach into your Source/AutoLayout/ directory in
Renaissance, and recompile Renaissance.  The fix will be included in the
next release.

Of course let me know if it still doesn't work properly for you! :-)

Thanks.
