I believe hyphenation is off. I am not explicity turning it on, and according to NSLayoutManager documentation, the 
hyphenationFactor on a scale from 0.0 to 1.0 is 0.0 or off by default.

The error occurs in both Tiger and Panther, regardless whether I'm building the application on a Tiger or Panther 
system.

One option I am adding to the next maintenance release of the program is the ability to turn background layout off. I 
assume this would solve the problem, but only as a palliate which in turn causes a host of other problems. Without 
background layout, a textview can get ugly real fast.
