bug#7004: 23.2; In fullscreen mode, the echo area takes too much vertical space

["Jan Djärv" <jan.h.d@swipnet.se>]

Please do not post in html.

 From your picture:
The height of tool bar + menu bar is 73 pixels.
Your font height is 17 pixels.

(1024 - 73)/17 = 55.94117

The remnant (0.94117) is just wasted space, no whole line can be made to fit 
in to it so it shows up at the botton as unused space.  Any window height that 
isn't an integral of the font height will show like this.

There is no bug here,
