This is, unfortunately, the platform standard on both OSX and Windows7. 
You can still resize the windows: Just grab the space between the two 
labels. There should be at least a cursor change.

With you example it doesn't work particularly well, because the labels 
are small and have no visible border. Try using e.g. a text widget 
instead (or maybe relief=SUNKEN)
