frame-pixel-width is correct in the Carbon port.
frame-pixel-height returns a value that is too low, as it doesn't
contain the title bar. This seems consistent across the platforms,
from what I hear, but it is annoying nevertheless.
The documentation reads:
"This counts only the height available for text lines, not menu bars
on window-system Emacs frames."
If you count the tool-bar as "available for text lines", and the title
bar as part of the non-existant menu bar (on my system), then that is
indeed correct.
So, either way, it would be useful to have the full height of a frame.
Consider that (frame-parameter nil 'top) returns the position of the
top edge, and not the y ordinate of the location where text could
potentially be displayed in the frame.
