bug#62592: Not creating new Tabs with small window

Thanks for the suggestion.  Empirically I found that
'(split-window-horizontally 1)' always fails.
So the next patch uses '(split-window-horizontally 2)'.

The purpose of this trick is to change window identity.  So maybe
a better name would be 'clone-window'?
