This is odd. I get nothing of the sort on my centos5 box, but I
suppose it could be a version difference. Here, I get the following:
[jperrin at insanity ~]$ gdialog --help
cdialog (ComeOn Dialog!) version 1.0-20051107

Auto-size with height and width = 0. Maximize with height and width = -1.
Global-auto-size if also menu_height/list_height = 0.
Nothing about zenity at all.
