Is the above the _only_ contents of your .emacs? No, but the behavior held even when the rest of my .emacs was commented out. Please feel free to play with my original .emacs file, attached. I was upgrading, due to standard windows problems (ie I had to reformat and reinstall), from Emacs 22.1 when I found this. Over the weekend I moved my home machine from Emacs 22.2 to 22.3 and discovered two things: 1. The bug is present in 22.2 2. (set-frame-size) is not affected, and is probably a better work-around than I gave in my previous message.
