FIX. RadMessageBox - Incorrect measure of the text message, that leads to wrong size of RadMessageBox.
To workaround this issue you should dispose the Instance property of RadMessageBox after each show of message box. For example:

WORKAROUND: 
RadMessageBox.Show("Text");
RadMessageBox.Instance.Dispose();

If you are using themes, consider the following approach:
            RadMessageBox.SetThemeName("Windows7");
            RadMessageBox.Show("This is some long text that sometimes does not wrap as it should.");
            var field = typeof(RadMessageBox).GetField("radMessageBoxForm", BindingFlags.NonPublic | BindingFlags.Static);
            field.SetValue(null, null);

In my opinion, WinForms Q1 2013 is meaningless downloading until this bug is fixed.
Seriously, you recommended fix feels like a real emergency solution. Quick bugfix for this thanks

It is not practical to go through our entire application and add lines of code after every message box.  This needs to be scheduled for a fix shortly.

This is a major issue for us. We use MessageBoxes a lot and occasionally even Buttons are not reachable within the shown size.

This is a really big bug. Must be fixed immediately with a patch for Q1 2013 release

This is an important problem for me. Having to go through my large winforms application and add a dispose to each MessageBox is a pain!
