​I can reproduce the problem when running '​
emacs -q --no-site-file
​file'.

I'm trying this on Fedora Rawhide with emacs built without any patches.
However, there seems to be a bug in gtk3 that makes emacs start
in a very small window, which cannot be split. Might that be the problem?
When I run 'emacs -q --no-site-file
​file -mm file', I *sometimes* get the split
and sometimes see only the splash screen.
