This is a fairly well known Qt bug but I can't find the proper reference. 
Here is some discussion for instance

http://www.qtcentre.org/threads/8766-Qt-layouting-QLabel-s-word-wrap-bug

If you go to the Qt bug tracker and search for QLabel wordwrap and layout 
you find a whole pile of issues like this.
