The option initial-frame-alist doesn't seem to be supported in version 21.3.1. When I run emacs with emacs -g x I get a non-maximized window of size w x (h - 3) if h <= 32. If h > 32 the window is maximized. The setting in ~/.emacs is still ignored, even if I set height to e.g. 24. Strange indeed. August
